Sonnet: Fairness Is Important In Life

One man can't be an Institution called;
One man can't do the work of many more;
One man cannot for others' faults be hauled;
One man faultless, cannot be shown the door!

Men want some fairness in all things around;
The same yardstick ought to be used for all;
One can't be left scot-free; the other bound;
The treatment's similar for any fall.

Follow all must, the rules that’s framed alike;
'Tis not to be relaxed for ones you want;
One can't shout loud; the other use a mike;
What does it matter, Elephant or Ant?
Progress can't come when partiality's rife;
Most important is fairness in our life;
