Expert witnesses swear
they will testify true
even when paid to sway
and skew the jury’s view,
one way or the other.
—————————————
Some persuade for the plaintiff,
others for the defense,
coffee gives me a lift,
information’s immense,
one way or the other.
—————————————-
Testimonies conceived
for expert deceptions,
planned to make us believe
and lead our perceptions,
one way or the other.
——————————————–
Evidence cumulates
case has lasted for weeks,
at finish verdict waits,
now, I twist in my seat,
one way or the other.
