The Equation
There must be a calculable equation
As to how some alter their beliefs
Since mostly they are based on
Projections, perceptions
Suggestions and innuendoes
Long-term indoctrinations
Wishful thinking and hope
That, in the end, is currently “right”
Correct and temporarily unalterable
Satiating a fraught fragile ego
With proof, I understand, yet with
Whimsical suggestions from a
Liked or feared sources make no sense
Some touting a book made-up
By making up authors making up
A non-existent creation from
Water that was already there
As an omniscient loving being
Who on one hand by genocide
Drowned his first batch of children
Only to, on the other hand, set them up
For failure, if they don’t believe in him
To die another violent Armageddon
If nothing else, forcing me to question
My own beliefs are to decipher what
They are actually constructed of
Bullshit my parents taught me through
Brain-soiling and repetition
Shit my teachers made me recite
Grading me on memory skills
Or government and corporations
In bed together to manifest beliefs
That suit their desired outcome
(Such as mind manifesting the scarcity
Of oil as to increase its perceived value)
Even though global production exceeds
100 million barrels per day at 42 gal per barrel
While each gallon of crude oil generates
About 19 gallons of gasoline… Ooopsie
Likewise, as an alternative solution
To end, actually ending abortions
Would be to support a foster care
System of people who actually want
To make sure all humans are valued
Taken care of, guided, and loved
Instead of spending 200 billion dollars
On killing out of the womb fetuses
“For decades, America’s war-profiteering companies have pocketed billions of dollars by selling weapons that directly fuel ethnic cleansings and genocides globally. The United States is home to four of the five largest private arms companies in the world: Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Northrup Grumman, and Raytheon.
These firms, which make up most of the country’s arms sales and profits, promote warfare by capitalizing on conflict. The U.S. accounts for more than 40% of the planet’s weapons exports. $100 to $200 billion U.S. dollars are pocketed in arms sales each year, and that number is gradually increasing year over year.”

If ceasefires were more profitable, they would occur
“Follow the money” – “Deep Throat”
“All the President’s Men”
Let us call it
A morality tit-for-tat
That if one is going
To choose consequences
That affect another’s
Bodily autonomy, then one
Ought to morally step in
To unburden themselves
From that decision by
Offering full fetal care
And financial fostering
To love, support, feed, and
Educate that fetus
Once out of the womb
If those alleged miracles are
So precious……..Prove it
In a show of support
Plus, a validation of
Ones unwavering belief
In an opportunity to
Prove what they believe
Ought to immediately
Volunteer to be
Foster parents and
Immediately adopt
The be born child*
Whilst demanding that
Seed planters be castrated
Physically so as not to further
Burden the foster care system
As long as the state is going
To rule over women’s bodies
Fairness dictates the same for men
* The best argument I recently read
Was that if the state would not allow a
Single female under 21 to adopt a baby
Then the same said state, ought not
Force her to raise her own when in
Either case, she may not be qualified
Responsible or financially prepared
If someone could just help me
Do the math, so it all adds up
Am quite sure it will be
More valuable than E = MC²
