Four Grade Science - Fair?

Fourth grade science
fair
The Uniqueness of Us All
Family fingerprints
illustrate
meticulous
black on white
posterboard
worded whorls
unique differences
lettered neatly
underneath
unseen the smudged
posterboard the
cajoling please
I promise just one
more fingerprinting
The mis-stroked keys
on thin stripped labels
Finally standing in
glory the uniqueness
of us all
my work sparkling
clear, concise,
researched and explained
ready for presentation
there leaning on an easel
at the science
fair
as I stood next to
the heart surgeon's
spawn's six foot
plastic human
neon replique
at the science
fair?
learning of fingerprints
uniqueness, integrity
and shame
at the science
fair
