quash

justice turns her face
her empty blinded eyes
look out but never see
as I register my plea
"not guilty"
"not guilty"
"not guilty
by reason of insanity"
love makes us all
a little crazy
magistrate of my heart
clears the docket
quashes earlier verdicts
and finds for me
tells the bailiffs
of my mind
to set me free
then shuts up the court
recess called for now
until new dawns, new days
new trials yet to be
