    "Who are we to judge?"

    We are judges

    High chairing arguing lawyers finding contempt ruling objections
    Gaveleling courtroom order to stand and sitting silently
    Judge's order finding judgement from juries

    We are juries

    Hearing testimonies ignoring evidence deliberating doubts into shadows
    Being found pooled and paneled anonymously tainted
    Jury's verdict reaching judgement from lawyers

    We are lawyers

    Opening to judges, addressing courts, closing to juries and billing all
    Being found presenting motions appealing sustained cases
    Lawyer's plea presenting judgement from defendants

    We are defendants

    Arrested suspected guilty during trials
    Being found 'guilty' or 'not guilty' by courts
    Defendant's oath swearing judgement from nothing but truths

    We are like truth

    Judged
    Answering justice
    A found truth of lost self
