Ummm....?
First came the girls who made a great noise,
Then came the guys, more threatening in poise.
However -
I hope it inspires to find it your steel,
The honor and courage … to face your ordeals
Indeed. Mission accomplished, I'd reckon.

@fionasfavourites,
I wondered if I'd take heat for the, "First came the girls who made a great noise," line but when Katie and Kaleb read the poem, they both singled it out as a "realistic depiction of what would happen." Women use words as weapons.
Then again, so do I.
When I write poetry, it is to "reveal a truth," not "conceal it" ... which means completely ignoring the "politically correct" (but ridiculously unrealistic) aspirations of activists, whatever their persuasion.
