#WIP The Laws of Gravid-y
In MAGA-murica,
I am free to carry a stillborn child until my body is septic
and the chances of my having other children, much less the chances of my living, decrease with each restriction
placed upon the care I need.
In MAGA-murica,
I am free to be shot
I am free to be scorned
I am free to be less human than corporations
But I cannot travel for care
But the man on the stump says
Life is sacred. In quotes.
Until it is born. Or female. Or of color. Or gay. Or transitioning. Or needing help.
Or disagreeing with the Party Line.
In MAGA-murica,
Life is sacred. In quotes.
You can actually see the quotes hanging in the air,
floating above the flashbulbs
wrapped in spittle and santicity
Words cannot describe what a great comfort it is
to know exactly how sacred life is
as I lie on the floor bleeding out.
