Good Ol Backwards North Dakota
good ol’ backwards North Dakota
wouldn’t want to be a woman in
North Dakota,
cause’ choice just ain’t happenin’ there.
nah,
if you’re a woman who gets raped in good ol’
backwards
North Dakota,
since they just shut down the last abortion
clinic,
all those bible thumping,
christ screaming, pro-lifers,
will be telling you to give birth
to a constant memory of the man who
raped you,
because they ****ing said so.
wouldn’t want to be a woman in
don’t-need-your-thumbs-to-live-here
North Dakota,
because i’d be unable to decide what to do with
my own goddamned body,
due to the fact that the
“heaven”
seeking
hillbillies
want me to kill my dreams of having a career
before settling down with a kid,
so they can feel like they did their
“god”
good.
wouldn’t want to be a woman in North Dakota,
unless i had enough money to get on the
quickest ****ing train
out of there
& gee willikers,
doesn’t that just feel ****ing dandy
in “the land of the free?”
