Appeal–proof
Paperless orders of disorder,
Of bias and delay,
Dribble down from the dais
Of injustice :

Will not dissuade
The resolve to block
Disclosure of confidence
Into a public docket .

Comeuppance approaches
For a judge aloof,
An instant when a lean
Cannon fuse is extinguished,

Poof .

Out of the dissipating smoke
steps jurisprudence,
black robe billowing
Beyond reproach .
