My Poem About Gender Equality

by Ann Onimice aged 12

Yeah, it’s me
My poem is about gender equality
Isn’t it funny how much I care?
Isn’t it funny that I want to be treated the same?
No, no it’s not.

I get laughed at for saying it’s unfair
I try to say what I think but
I feel like every day
I’m being silenced
I feel small, weak
Why boys think they’re better
I’ll never know
