Your average candidate

One phrase I can’t eschew

Refresh portal

It seems immortal

I come back day by day

I cannot stay away


Three sport varsity athlete

I will not admit defeat

I trudged my way through Girls State

I’m consistently up way too late

With a two page resume

I’m not one to dismay


Never touched a drop of liquor

Neither weed nor anything sicker

No speeding tickets

No referrals, just crickets

My record speaks for itself

Why do I need to explain myself?


I’m not your average high school student

My application is in, surely I was prudent.

My dedication hasn’t swayed

My scores have made the grade

My classmates do not understand

Why I would risk my life for this land

Why could it possibly take so long

I’ve patiently been dragged along

My friends have been accepted

Maybe mine was intercepted...


I cannot see the light at the end

Hopefully it’s just around the bend

I’m reading the fortunes in a cookie

I’m no Magic 8 Ball rookie

Checking my horoscope every day

Stalking the mail coming my way


Oh, when will I be appointed

I’m getting disappointed

But as long as I’m not part of the TWE fray

I can wait another day.
