The Pro-Life Hypocrite

You say life is precious.
All babies should be born.
But once they come into the world
There is no interest any more.
If they are poor, you don’t care.
If they are gay, you don’t want them here.
If they are different from you,
You want them to change, or go away too.
You don’t want for your taxes
to pay for Social Services
that will help the less fortunate.
Despite all their turbulence,
You remain obstinate.
No, you don’t take a gun
and put it to people’s heads
But you make decisions
that kill their spirits instead.
Deny them healthcare, take away insurance
Remove their Rights, close their clinics,
Show no tolerance.
So, it’s not a woman’s choice
to no longer birth a baby.
It’s other people’s values and someone else’s reason
that she must do as they say with her own body.
But it’s not just a birth
with which she has to deal.
It’s a life, an experience
of unknown entities and no guarantees.
Yet somehow it’s for you to decide.
You easily play judge and jury
over women’s lives.
Now we’re in a pandemic
you refuse guidance from the Government.
It’s now, your body, your choice –
That you scream at the top of your voice.
So now that it’s your body
other lives don’t matter.
Your pro-life stance was only empty chatter.
Wearing a mask can save lives.
But your personal freedom takes the spotlight.
Between the fetus and birth – there is ambiguity.
The rights of the mother versus the baby.
It’s the belief, no absolute.
Some grey areas regarding the truth.
For this matter, there is opinion.
So how do others, the Government
Over a woman’s body get dominion?
In contrast, with the Covid-19 virus
There is no doubt.
With people up and about it spreads more.
With no mask, the numbers soar.
Lack of compliance to the guidelines
Result in more spread and more people dead.
Yes, it’s a virus that actually kills.
It can ruin one’s health
cause a lot of heartache and bring
Healthcare workers to the brink.
It’s costly to the Economy.
How can you be so selfish?
Shunning personal responsibility –
You can’t contribute to the helping?
Wearing a mask is a small sacrifice.
What’s a little discomfort over such hefty price.
Saying you’re pro-life is not adequate.
Now is the time to prove you’re a true life-advocate.
Step up now and make it clear
When it came to others, you were there.
Your standard before was – life at all cost.
Circumstance – was of no importance.
Has your standard changed since it’s you in the range?
It’s not that difficult you know,
Do you stand by what you stood for, or was it all a show?
Maybe you do have a pro-choice stance –
When it’s under your condition and for your circumstance.
Seems you’re all in for the Right when you get to choose –
What’s for the win and who should lose.
Otherwise you’re in for the kill
When it’s other people’s free-will.
While your selfish ways and deeds
are what you promote and instill.
If you can’t see it fit to wear a mask during a pandemic –
You are not pro-life.
Just a dangerous hypocrite.
