I have a posthumous crush on Alice Paul.
I think I should have learned about her in school,
but I never did.
Learning about her might have inspired me,
which is why I should have learned about her in school,
and probably why I never did.
What I learned in school is that if your ultimate goal
is to be learned about in school,
you ought to consider being a war general
rather than a civil rights leader.
And unless you happen to be Susan B. Anthony,
it's best not to be of the lady persuasion.
