A Sunday Poem: “Check”

 

Applicants for Summer Jobs program

must check a box on the form.

 

Agree with women’s right to abortion.

 

I read the job description

of a military chaplain.

 

Advise on ethical dilemmas,

spiritual and moral issues.

Provide care after major life incidents.

 

Not a word on reproductive freedom.

No box to check.

 

How would Liberals assure

the Chaplain agrees with the Charter?
