(Okay- longest Abortion poem so far but it’s also my favorite so far. :))

ABORTION III:
LOGIC, FACTS, AND MORALITY:
Abortion, here we are:
Logic, Facts, Morality…
You think we are you friends,
But we are your enemies.

We came here when you called,
Bustled o’er to hear your side.
But, we cannot protect you-
No, with us you cannot hide.

I, Logic, come to hear you-
But you’re full of fallacy.
Abortion, hear me out:
Heed wisdom and honesty.

Though you say you save a life,
You are lying to yourself.
Though you stop an inconvenience,
You do it through a death.

When you are argued after,
You take to the extremes:
Cases of rape and incest; you
Call yourself necessity.

Lack of money, lack of help,
They are called causes of worth.
But they’re no reason to kill-
To send one from this earth!

You call it all for shame
When you aren’t listened to.
You ignore the other options
That are placed beside of you.

There are people out to help;
Not like you who terminate…
People loving and for life-
Loving and compassionate.

Abortion, you’re all faulty-
Two wrongs don’t make a right!
I’m certainly not with you:
Go, run! Be put to flight.

I, Facts, now come to hear you
With Science as my friend.
You called to me for aid, but
Let me teach you from my end.

You say that you are moral:
No, not taking life at all!
But when is it you say
That it’s not a tissue ball?

Is it when it starts to form?
Is it when conception starts?
Is it when you hear the first beat
Of a tiny, little heart?

Is it when you see the hands?
When you see the little feet?
Is it when it leaves the birth canal,
Giving sharp cries, so discreet?

You ignore me when I say
That your point of view is flawed.
It’s a life from the beginning,
Given from the hands of God.

You say that it’s dependant,
So it holds no life, it seems…
Along with all the babies BORN
That I have ever seen?

You can’t deny that it’s a life;
Why do you even try?
I apologize, Abortion-
But I am not on your side.

I, Morality, come to hear…
I am your largest threat.
You try hard to ignore me,
But I am constant, yet.

You’ve tried to be my friend,
By saying you’re moral and wise.
But it’s time to remove masks
And take off your disguise.

All the mothers, all the girls,
They know it in their hearts.
I am the Holy Spirit,
Fighting Satan’s fiery darts.

They say that you’re immoral,
But they choose you anyway-
Pro-Choice but don’t abort…
They don’t know that they’re the same.

When they choose you, they regret it
‘Cause they know I was ignored.
I tell them that it’s murder,
But I’m pushed right out the door.

Abortion, I just hate you.
If the world would listen to me,
I’d destroy you with my all-
I am not your friend, indeed!

The three of us, we’ve come
At your hopeless, desperate call.
But we will not defend you;
We’ll go and make you fall.

You’re calling to your enemies
And we will not delay.
We know your faults and weakest points:
We’ll show the world, today.
