Chapter 26 Pre-screening a poem about a nun of the order of security
"Someone is suing for a million dollars in compensation," said the Sister of the Security Order.
"Just because someone gave him a stare."
It was her first day as a juror.
Blessed nun standing on stage with a book
Cover the front of the smock.
Her blouse, with yellow ruffles and white lace,
The book, with gilded purple on black leather
Across the cover:
Bible.
On her face, wearing black-rimmed glasses.
The only jewelry, a string of jingling
A bracelet made of small silverware.
Her hair was dyed as black as her shoe polish
Black as her bible.
On stage, there is no spotlight, only a video:
Both lenses of her glasses shone, reflecting

And gallows, gritty newsreel
Prisoners sentenced to gas chambers
Or the death penalty by shooting.

Under the lace of the cuffs,
The fingers of both hands clasped the Bible,
Her nails are painted the same yellow as the frills,
The Sister of the Security Order said she paid her taxes on time.
She never jaywalks, she recycles plastic products,
Take the bus to work.
"At that time," said the Sister of the Vigilante, while she was jury
Day one, "I told the judge"
Expressed like clinking bracelets.
"Fuck that bastard."
And the judge sentenced her to contempt of court...
