SUMMARY
There were many symbolisms that have
been used in the poem. First is the blindfold that shows that justice is
objective. You will not look unto his position whether he is rich or poor. The people are in equal estate.
Second is the golden pair of scales. The pair of scales is gold because the color
gold symbolizes something valuable or positive while scales measures balance and
fairness. It also measures validity which means fair or reasonable whether it’s
against or in favour.
Third is the double-edge sword that
symbolizes that it’s not always reason and it's not only justice. Justice and
reason should be balance.
Fourth is the Thot’s feather of truth.
Thot is an Egyptian deity that served as a meditating power especially between
good and evil. This also tackles the justice between good and bad.
Next is the painting. It was mentioned
there the Roman goddess Justitia that slowly fades into thin air and that means that the
justice is already gone.
The right and wrong are like cards because
it is easy to manipulate. If you have money, you can easily manipulate many
situations regarding justice.
The Lady Justice was mentioned because it
symbolizes the justice. Justice states that even though you are rich or has a
tons of money; it is not an excuse for you underestimate the poor.
Whether you are rich or poor, the treatment should be fair.
