Do little kids
feel unfair feelings
100 times more than fair feelings?
Do they kick
their feet against their high chair
when they see the adults sitting at the big table?
Do they hate it
when the older folks
can stay up and they have to go to bed?
Do they hate it
when their face is washed
with the sink cloth and others use clean napkins?
Do folks get it
when they see Les Miserables and Valjean
100 times more than fair feelings?
when they see the adults sitting at the big table?
can stay up and they have to go to bed?
with the sink cloth and others use clean napkins?
goes
to jail for 19 years for stealing just a loaf of bread?`
Did the people of
Ireland make The Fields of Athenry
their national anthem because Michael is sent on a prison ship to Australia for taking some food for his kid.
Do we move from “Unfair”
to “Fair” when we learn
to say, “Thank You” for all the blessings we receive?
