Use Any Angle

Janet Kuypers
6/27/22

Biblically, we talk about going to heaven, then
Working for peace... to make heaven on earth

When wanting peace, it starts with not only
Loving all, but treating everyone as equal

Still, women continue as the religious right,
A.K.A. white men, takes away women’s rights

It makes me wonder, if women are forced to
Carry a fetus to term to create a new life

Would these stodgy white men care for it,
As well as all of the orphanage and foster kids

That no one will claim, care for, or love?
Because if these conservative christians

Truly believe in the words of their deity,
Then they should help the poor, feed and

Clothe those with none, house the homeless —
Instead of your church pocketing billions

While not paying taxes, and turning our
Focus to claiming to care for an embryo...

*

But it’s not about caring for the unborn,
We all know that, it’s about restricting

Women’s rights — we’ve been under your
Thumb for millennia, and as we prove we

Can do your jobs (all at less pay, thank you)
As well as juggle your female-defined chores,

Well, you’ll have to come up with a new angle
To take different rights away from us.

Because you’ve had this stranglehold on
Woman-kind for so long, you don’t want to

Lose your quote unquote perceived power.
Try any excuse. Use any angle. Do anything

You can so you can still feel like you’re
In control. But whatever tactics you use,

We’ll circumvent the error in your ways.
It’s the only way history moves forward.
