Boiling Blood
Can’t decide if this will be revered or the final nail in my writing coffin.
So if I haven’t lost every reader by now, hang tight and enjoy the ride.
“This next song (post) is written about religion, or about washing your car, or … actually it is about opening a pair of curtains. Called Revelations, this one!”

“Pro-life conservatives are obsessed with the fetus from conception to nine months. After that, they don’t want to know about you. They don’t want to hear from you. No nothing. No neonatal care, no day care, no head start, no school lunch, no food stamps, no welfare, no nothing. If you’re preborn, you’re fine; if you’re preschool, you’re fucked.
Conservatives don’t give a shit about you until you reach “military age”. Then they think you are just fine. Just what they’ve been looking for. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers.”
– George Carlin
Here comes Gilead
Here comes Gilead
Right down Hypocrisy Lane
Dangling a fetus like a carrot
Driving everyone insane
Georgia ‘n’ Alabama ‘n’
All of their faux fear
Are causing so much strain
Women are cringing
Freedom’s diminishing
All is scary and fright
Get your passport and
Pack your bags
Cause Gilead comes in the night
Here comes Gilead
Here comes Gilead
Right into Piousness square
Doesn’t care how far along you are
As long as you stay a brood mare
.
“Hey look! A fetus. Whatever you need.
Let’s go. Whatever you, the apathetic docile masses
Need to get behind, here, here’s a fetus.
Come on. Look a little fetus.

That little fetus got more TV time than I did last year.”

It is neither the act
Nor the intention
Of killing humans
For whatever reason
Regardless the stage
We are all going
To die eventually
It is the hypocrisy
Surrounding it
That makes
My blood boil
.
Smoke and mirrors
Of distraction played
Like a weak
Jedi mind trick
On the feeble minded
Not equating
In womb fetuses
With grown
Out of the womb
Fetuses
.
These are not the
Fetuses you’re
Looking for
.
Oh, okay carry on

“I loves the poorly educated, I do well with the poorly educated.”
– Donald Trump
Just because
John Bolton
Wants to go to Iran
To instantly perform
Thousands of
Post natal abortions
With the taxpayer money
Having a “volunteer” staff
Using crude tools
To satiate his
Hateful fantasies
Makes it not only “legal”
It is done en masse
With no justification
Save poking a bear
To justify
Killing the bear
Because (and I’m assuming)
His parents weren’t fit to be
.
Justifications based on
Perceived meanings
Clouds judgements
Fires fundamentalism

‘I’m against abortion, except like in cases of rape.’
That’s like saying, ‘yes, a fetus is a human being,
Unless his dad is an asshole.’
Doug Stanhope
.
Rape and incest become bizarre loopholes
Under every circumstance a fetus must be saved
Less of course the father (seed planter) is an asshole
That would not only make every abortion legal
It would make them mandatory and necessary
Must be the metaphorical equivalent that it is okay
To kill a country’s kids, if the leader “dad” is an asshole.
Seems to be John Bolton’s argument for starting a war with Iran. Preparing to send in over a hundred thousand abortionists to kill and extract full grown out of the womb fetuses
.
“We gotta come to some new ideas about life folks ok? I’m not being blase about abortion, it might be a real issue, it might not, doesn’t matter to me. What matters is that if you believe in the sanctity of life then you believe it for life of all ages.
//
They’re killing children!” What does that mean? They reach a certain age and they’re off your fucking love-list?
//
You either love all people of all ages or you shut the fuck up.”

While contemplating this post, noticed one of those “pro-life” billboards with a little pink kid standing in a field of green grass with a sky blue background, with raised hand. Underneath it the words.
Take my hand, not my life.
All well and good, however couldn’t the same message apply if the image was of a brown kid standing on sand with buildings burning in the background.
Take my hand, not my life.
.
Wouldn’t the same apply to an Iranian or whichever enemy, the latest hawk hole opts to kill in the constant mix of who is who or where is the next bogeyman who resides in Eastasia, Oceania or Eurasia?
If you’re so pro-life, do me a favour: don’t lock arms and block medical clinics. If you’re so pro-life, lock arms and block cemeteries.
– Bill Hicks
Starting with the military cemeteries, where somehow celebrated soldiers get the most attention they will never receive.
