FAIR

Who said, “Life is fair”?

Yet it seems that’s the assumption
we’re all born with – or given – or have.

You hear kids saying it all the time.
“Hey, that’s not fair!”  "unfair!"

People jump ahead of each other
on lines all the time – or they try.

“I got one scoop of ice cream and it
was delicious till I saw you got two.”

“She got the lead in the play
and I got to give out the programs.”

“They just built this fire house
just down the street from us.”

“Not fair.  Lefties can get to first base
a step quicker than righties ever time.”

“Jesus Christ, not fair. My birthday
is on December 25th.  Not fair.”

Who said, “Life is fair”?
