Sonia

I so admire Sonia*; She brings honor to the Court, Especially when rules of law Her colleagues try to thwart. In a blistering dissent, she wrote This ruling now will bring So much power to a president, He might as well be king. Since the founding of our country, No one’s been above the law, Yet 6 justices decided A new plan they’d like to draw. Sonia “fears for our democracy,” She said in her dissent And for 29 sharp pages, She explained just what she meant. Oh, I’m fearful for the future When a candidate and Court Can take well-established rules and facts And twist them to distort. *Sonia Sotomayor, a Supreme Court justice
