"eye for an eye makes the whole world blind" -Gandhi. justice is not to be taken to far.
A hand for a hand,
lets everything go unplanned,
but an arm for an arm,
saves us from harm.

A tooth for a tooth,
hides the truth,
but a smile for a smile,
is worth while.

An ear for an ear,
is what we can't hear,
but a head for a head,
saves us many dead.

An eye for an eye,
makes the people cry,
but a face for a face,
has much more grace.

A heart for a heart,
is far from art,
and a person for a person,
simply makes justice done.
