Rashomon

sorenbarrett

That's ok, I'm not mad at you do what you got to do
Voice of an immigration czar, GET OUT'A THE CAR!
Roar of the engine, intervention
The agent sprang, bang, bang, bang
Fuck'n bitch
An unmanned car rolls to the ditch
Is the law above the law or under the law, I know what I saw
Blood of bias stains our eyes, a crippled mind makes up alibies
Self defense or execution, standing on the fence no good solution
Judge not, it is said, you can't get inside another's head
But what of justice you say, didn't you hear, it died yesterday

  • Comment from author about the poem: Rashomon a movie by Akira Kurosawa that shows a murder from four different points of view all different and it is left up to the viewer to decide which is right. This effect affects eye witness testimonies based not on lies or different angles but individual preexisting biases. We see what we want to see.
