You all claim to be
Pro-life,
But where are the people
Who are pro-living?
And your
Lack of a cause
Has done what, exactly, to change
This world for the better?
Throw words around
Like they're *****.
But I'll brush them off
And wear them as a badge of honor.
Your feigned apathy
Towards fixing the problem
Is hindering the solution.
Just because you have no personal responsibility
Doesn't mean you have no responsibility at all.
You're scared of real feminism,
Because you think it will operate how
Your patriarchy does:
Violently and without remorse
Or consequence.
You fear equality for races
Because you believe
It will work the same way
Your oppression does:
Mercilessly and lacking real punishment.
You refuse to lend a hand to others,
To those dying in the streets,
Whether it be this nation or another,
Because you believe you won't get anything back.
And you claim to be pro-life,
Because someone yet to be born
Has no sin,
Is an innocent life.
But the moment they breathe in
All this air,
They are cast with original sin,
And you get to decide their fate.
And you claim to be pro-life,
But you're the one who makes the judgment,
You're the one who decides whether they live a life worth living
Or die a death unfitting.
And you claim you're pro-life,
But when there are
Children going hungry,
And parents getting sick,
And riots or bombs in the streets,
And hate crimes becoming
More and more and more
Can you tell me that you care?
That you'll do more than stop and stare?
You all claim to be
Pro-life,
But where are the people
Who are pro-living?
Social commentary, I guess.
