moving moon
dancing feet
david henneberry,  tom yarbroug, adam kurtz, helen wu, eric hill
they all read lots of minds
a paper sack is nice
richard allen stays helpful
so do peng zuo, tom wolf,  scott james, bob young, and olive wells

Lawyers are not paid to be nice;
they’re expected to always win.
one can say it once, say it twice,

.
“If you want to take their advice,
you should know before you begin:
Lawyers are not paid to be nice.”

.
They have their sin; they have their vice–
some with drink, the other with tags.
one can say it once, say it twice,

.
because she’s seen every slice–
including all of poets and novelists,
“Lawyers are not paid to be nice.”

.
But if you have suffered malice
and do not want to sacrifice ,
one can say it once, say it twice,

.
“If you want to win, pay the price;
let the legal process begin.”
Lawyers are not paid to be nice;
one can say it once, say it twice.
