I had to write a poem as part of my application.  I share it with you here for fun...

Unfair

It’s absolutely unjust, It’s shameful and it’s wrong.”

(My thirteen-year-old daughter has made Fairness her theme song.)

“It’s biased, unethical, it’s immensely foul!”

She started in this morning and continues now to howl.

I can’t get a word in edge wise; she is on a roll…

Global warming, civil rights – now she’s on to gun control.

Ever the zestful advocate.  She’s passionate and tough.

Any thought of compromise is met with a rebuff.

But, when I suggest that with her sibs she try get along,

“It’s absolutely unjust, It’s shameful and it’s wrong.”
