SIM-POOL Legal Language = Happy Lawyers?

My friends were red, blue and green. They were playing in the cess pool. Holi ka festival tha. My friends were behaving like animals and shouting hoooooo, haaaaaaa, wooooooo etc etc. They were in joy. Only simple monosyllables like these could be uttered. Like animals you know, I know.

Maybe even early man was very happy. Because sim-pool language (straight from the gut) is the language of the heart. Poetry (straight from the heart) is the language of the soul.

Now here is a simple assumption: Where language is simple, there is a clarity of thought. Where there is clarity of thoughts, things go well.

But what about the legal language (straight from the wicked brains and evil hearts)?. Why is it so complicated?

Now here is a weird question/conclusion: Are lawyers generally unhappy coz the language is so foreign to their existence? Because complicated and perennially confusing usage of words disturbs them? (Ahhh! Profound)

A time comes when they are proud that they know the complication and the confusion well. Being eternally confused they do things which are very muddy coz their thoughts lack clarity.

A simple question/ conclusion: Do we need to simplify our legal parlance to promote knowledge of law everywhere (including Bihar)? That will surely result in more awareness of legal rights etc.

If law used simple language which the general public could understand then what would be the use of lawyers? :P

They would still interpret it 'complexly'.

Yes bhai! But wait...I am classy, I don't have to worry about form. Ha! That is what TV commentators say. Class is permanent, form is temporary.

But I am also depressed coz pee-pool have said that my posts don't have quality. They like when someone writes 'getting laid on the job' or something like 'dasamar chandmangal sweets'...but not my posts?

Maybe all readers of LI are city babus. Why would they care about the simple stuff? They like complex and sophisticated things. Not humble writings like mine. That is why when I tried to introduce some rustic humour they said that there should be quality control. Now...I was also thinking of deleting posts.
