Nolo Contendere



Twice tried
the muse
though without
a reasonable
doubt
guilty
of 
no good
notions

a victim
of special
circumstances

motions
made
objections
sustained
Sunday
squandered
inspiration
overruled

despite
a preponderance
of evident
intentions
and
testimony

I am convicted

the muse
is free to go




NaPoWriMo  Day 5

*Nolo Contendere - a plea by which a defendant in a criminal prosecution accepts conviction as though a guilty plea had been entered but does not admit guilt.
