How many friends and relatives do you know?
Who have faced a grand jury indictment blow?
Presented by our ordinary citizen peers,
To investigate potential felony mutineers.
Our democratic system of law and order,
Justice for all regardless of one’s stature.
A grand jury determines “probable cause,”
Then a trial jury after a legal pause.
Our Fifth and Sixth Amendments guarantee jury rites,
Legal proceedings to protect all citizens’ rights.
The grand jury subpoena a search for true justice,
And pleading the Fifth does not due process dismiss.
Our Supreme Court’s task “Equal Justice Under the Law”
Should shun the political interference flaw.
