Cheats prevail.
Children are taught otherwise, of course.
Teachers share-
Fairy-tales at circle time
About virtue winning through.
But fraudsters and bullies learned early
That the system protects itself
From the inside out.
The perpetrator is protected
While the wounded
Are silenced
Blamed.
By boys raised as heroes
In a society that elevates them
Not for talent or skill
But the privilege
They refuse to acknowledge.
Because they are the only victims.
In the myths.
We hold.
So dear.
