A Poem from Janet Cannon's
|
really?
|
really? you want less
government but you want to
stuff government into my
uterus like turkey dressing
disguised as compassion
really? you pay for
viagra and cialis but you
won't pay for birth control
like saying if you work for
me i am your slave master
really? you say you
want to save babies but
you kill doctors like saying
you are not an addict as
you shoot-up hypocrisy
really? you want to buy
guns without any restrictions
but you don't want your kid
killed by one like a deer in
endless street hunting season
really?
