Monkey Court

Monkey Court

Monkey Court talks about feelings of revenge and vendetta. It gives a word of caution against such behavior. This remains true even in the face of persecution.

Monkey Court

When you think someone has wronged you

And you feel vindictive

Stop in your tracks

And take a deep breath

 

When you would be

The judge, jury and prosecutor

You must be careful

Not to heap wrong upon wrong

 

There are no checks and balances

The suspect is guilty by default

And has no trial by other court

Behind this murky veil of hurt

 

No one to question motive

No one to ask

Is this a self-inflicted hurt?

Only in your mind

 

A trace of lynching haunts the place

In this monkey trial of shame

Signed, sealed and convicted

The alleged one must be

 

The wronged is the hangman too
