My wastebasket overflows
with aborted attempts,
Lines that I cannot rhyme
and syntax that limps.

America constitutions in hand of 9 judges
But it is hard to understand their logicism
Oh you have no legal right of your own life
Really when all women needs our support
They have to travel on a sad lonely journey
It just hard to understand their anguish
Oh it wrong to terminate an unborn child
Not to kill and slaughter an existing life
Sometime it appears logic isn't conceivable
It's easy to see
It's more important to be
pro-life
than pro-choice
if one must prefer to choose
to win or lose
robust healthy life.
Are you pro-life
or pro-choice?
Both.
Pro-choosing resilient EarthTribe life
for everyone.
Do not confuse pro-choice
with pro-death,
Or pro-life
with anti-integrity unhealthy choice.
If pro-LifeChoice
emerges on our Winner's Table,
then the list of what we are democratically for
becomes a health agenda
of resonant life fully lived
with self and other compassion.
And all the diversely negative anti-life non-choices begin,
for me,
with anti-life risks of nuclear holocaust,
anti-climate risks to resilient health,
anti-life automated commodified industrial ballistics
designed to kill
as rapidly
and vapidly
as irresponsibly possible.
This list of patriarchally-driven abortions of healthy choice
against pro-life matriarchal healing humanity
goes on and on most violently
then abusively
then neglectfully
then unconsciously
uncommitted to never aborting LifeChoice
democratic advocacy
respect
dignity
passion
enchantment
wonder
love
sacred integrity.
Abortions one thing I can't understand.
There's so many places willing to lend a hand.
Abortion to me means your killing a child.
This statement I'm sure will make some go wild.
But how can you say that it isn't a baby.
If you don't have your faith, then I guess than just maybe.
To me life begins at the time of conception.
Babies are a great gift and deserve our protection.
If this poem can change just one woman's mind.
Then that's a good start in protecting mankind.
Just remember this child didn't ask to be here.
I know you are scared, but get over your fear.
Just give them a chance at what can be lifes the best.
Put your faith in the Lord, he'll help with the rest.
