Unfair?

You support a mother taking life, protect the bullies dimming lights, defend the men violating Jane Doe’s, vote for someone who make’s million’s anger grow. Yet you say “Abortion is murder,” so are the mother’s actions. Yet you say “it was selfish,” no it was a pathway to freedom. Yet you ask “what was worn?” but that Jane Doe’s life was torn while the wolves only had an assignment while she was living in fear and confinement. Yet you say “He’s making America great,” but he’s also giving the right for children that don’t fit in the standard guide to be harassed, bullied until they can't live anymore. Yet they say "children shouldn't be interesting and into politics," but Politics should NOT be into children in any way, should they? So is life unfair because you can’t get what you want? Or is it unfair because people’s pain are ignored?

A lot to think about in your dramatic poem that feels like a therapeutic and necessary spilling. I do a lot of those, especially when I was a teen and in my 20s. We all want to change what needs to be rearranged but sometimes we can only 'work' on perfecting our own world and selves. I hear you. CayCay
