allegations
part iii conclusion
“justice”

sleepless knight before each day, father overwrought
interviewed authorities , got scuttlebutt gordian knot
if not serious drollery of bad behavior me
of several years ago; did not make sense, ah no evidence see

real hero in ordeal daughter, never once wavered
not that., held our ground , did not flee; learning savored
weeks went without resolution (un)believeable false allegation
of guilty ones? digressed absence of due process condemnation

then, gloppen, called principals office important meeting
there incident teacher’s indictment o beating
had scholium proved outright accusation fictive
according school principal teacher “lost it” fired , vindictive

justice served though prayer , petition, thanksgiving never quitting
word teacher , family left town in shame result of acquitting
school offered apology me put through
fighting truth in midst of being sunken ship in abyss

little girl awarded scholarship remainder of grade school
gratefully accepted gather placate no lawsuit of golden rule
there no moral story except fight when have been falsely accused
perpetrators make mockery of system there protect abused
