… one of the world’s greatest short stories.) Look at more and more of the No Exceptions crowd start backing away real quick from their original position on abortion.
************************************
One of them sings a sad ballad.
************************************
Where is that girl with the zygote?
That little girl was my big electoral chance
The one whose father beat and raped her
But no abortion under any circumstance!
…….
Did I need a gentler hand?
Did I need a lighter touch?
On abortion I was tough
Nothing was too much
Kill the mother in a clutch!
But the moment when I said full ban
All my voters turned away
God please say it’s not too late
For me to totally reverse today
Was my stance a little cruel? Was my bloodlust less than cool?
Did I let my mind go wild? Were my thoughts defiled?
She’s just a little child…
Yes it seems there were a million things
I was dumb enough to say
Can my voting base forgive
If I walk them back complete today?
Should I blame my Trumpy operatives
Who told me incest didn’t count?
What a shame
I failed in human decency
Before I lost the game
Was I something of a dick?
Was my world a little sick?
Was there too much MAGA crowd
All too mean and loud
And not enough of me?
Though I’ll ask myself my whole life long
What went wrong along the way
Would I make the same mistakes
If I tried to be humane today?
If that girl with the zygote
Walked into my life today?
