The Legal System ("Please, can you take a letter, Miss Jones?") - Alien's #14

The party of the first part comma

Having had no change of heart comma

Does not want the charge to drop full stop

 

In that case comma it seems comma

Our options are dreams open brackets

Nightmares exclamation close brackets full stop

 

However comma we can still win

If comma by some miracle

Comma they are forced to give in

 

Italicised highlighted in red

Do not underline not be thus led

By the don't write this thick imbecile

 

write this Prosecution and his guile

We have the pictures of him and a

highlight Prostitute so smile full stop

Everyone has already said it, beat me to the punch. . .absolutely brilliant writing. The title is perfect. I read this several times, and enjoyed it immensely. Thank you Graeme for sharing.

I smiled and snickered my way through this one. Agree with everybody else. A very clever solution. I also liked how you married the subject matter with the form. It's as if a lawyer is dictating, right? I loved the "don't write this."

EXCELLENT. Not sure how I missed this before. Well done. My boss never told me where to punctuate or when to italicize, but it makes a great piece. Thanks for being so creative. J

Offering a small glimpse of some of the words that informal grae - Graeme Sandford - has cobbled together over the years in an attempt to become rich and famous through his writing. Sadly, he is poor and unknown (largely due to his writing).

So, what are you waiting for?
