QC presents her witness to the court,
A legal gambit none have seen before.
Refusing every option to abort,
She scans the jury’s mood, and takes the floor.
“You were, in public, naked, were you not?”
Politely, he accepts the truth of it.
“But not because you foolishly forgot?”
No, never, he is ready to admit.
“The law is quite uncompromising, yes?”
He nods, a clear admission of his guilt.
“Then why would you defy it, and undress?
Perhaps you are... alternatively built?”
Defendant A removes his human skin.
“My client claims immunity.” They win.
