A Father's Job:
Father of Jem and Scout, brother of Alexandra and Jack,
Lawyer of Tom Robinson, the equal man of society,
He’s wise, caring, and protective within Maycomb,
and is brave according to his definition.
He knows what to do and what’s right,
fighting for racial equality and justice,
Defends his own children from danger,
And is always responsible for his actions.
Reality in Society:
A mockingbird, very innocent, very kind,
Killing it is a sin in Maycomb society,
A society full of racism and hate,
What else can one man do but his best
A man does the right thing that he should do,
and believes that other actions should not occur,
But it is impossible to stop what he wants,
because this society won’t let him accomplish it.
