Dan Super Hero

Poem Directed by Scholz (PE,)

Dan, the master of numbers and laws so fine,

Antithesis to the realm of rhythm and rhyme,

Not a tune, but a crash of papers and ledgers in line,

Kept in order, prepared to face the court trials divine.

Against universities, he burns with a fervent flame,

His voice resounds, like a legal siren’s refrain,

Not a ballad, but the shout of justice’s name.

Dan, the protector of scholars, with a nimble “swish,”

Aims for equity, with a legal arrow’s twist,

Not a serenade, but the boom of a judge’s gavel’s wish,

Keeping the scale, between wrong and right he will not desist.

After each triumph, he raises his hand with grace,

Honorably standing, for what he holds just in place,
