OUR BODIES
In the land of
The dollar bill.
Women no longer
Have free will.
In the year twenty
Twenty-two.
We will not adhere
To your point of view.
Our bodies, our choice,
Our decision.
F*ck the supreme court
And the dirty politician.
You're on a mission to
Impregnate all the girls.
Careful the collision of
These two worlds.
For many eons you
Have led us astray.
We have been saving
For a rainy day.
The men who force us
To have a child.
Tread lightly the woman
Is a beast of the wild.
You want Handmaid's Tale
To become a reality.
This is human trafficking
And brutality.
We will die fighting, we will
Not live on our knees.
We are not going to allow
You to do as you please.
