I was warm
And I was happy
I was dreaming
Of my Life
I would run
And I would dance
I would hold you
In my life
We'd be warm
And we'd be happy
We'd pick flowers
In our life
I don't know why
You didn't love me
I don't know why
You threw me away
I don't know why
You tore me to pieces
Before I saw
The light of day
My soul is aching
I don't know why
Why did you hate me
Why did you kill me
Why didn't you want to be
My mommy
I was your baby
Why did you want me to die?
Why did you want me to die?
I don't know why
INNOCENT CRIMINALS
A Brechtian drama by Derick Smith
SCENE ONE
[Curled in foetus position]
Foetus: I never walked abroad in air
I never saw the sky,
Nor knew the sovereign touch of care,
Nor looked into an eye.
I never chose, nor gave assent,
Nor voted on my fate—
Unseen I came, unseen I went,
Too early and too late.
This was my only lifeline: trust,
As absolute as blood,
Now down into the bucket thrust,
Anonymous as mud.
Oh you within god-like power
It lies to decide,
Remember me when, some late hour,
Talk turns to 'genocide',
SCENE TWO
Teacher: All right class, Listen up, I'm only going to say this once. [looks at stud
23/9/1995
To an unborn child,
For my unborn child.
Never to be born.
Never to be - man, woman,
Boy, girl, father, or mother.
Never to be - uncle, aunt,
Niece, nephew, sister or brother.
You will never run in the wind,
Feel the heat of the sun,
See the snow fall,
Or hear the birds call.
Never taste the wonder of summer,
Or smell the spring blossom.
All of these, you shall miss,
You won't even get a first kiss.
Deep inside your mother's womb,
Your little heart beats.
You grow, you feed, you live.
Even inside there, there is life.
Taken, scraped, removed by the surgeon's knife.
Never will you breath our polluted air,
Or see
With a huge sigh escaping my mouth, I sit cross-legged on my bed. In my hands I hold a piece of knitting I haven't touched in about six months. It was going to be a 'shrug' - just the sleeves to a sweater since that's all I wear anyway. A dark purple wool in garter stitch is for the cuffs and sides, and a pretty, acrylic, variegated yarn in stockinette stitch is for the main body. Except for the bits of hair caught in it - easily remedied - it looks very pretty, what little I have.
I sigh again. I pull off the blue pastic needle protector and pause - am I sure? I am. The first ten stitches - purple - slide off easily. It's not too late to ch
My name is Samantha Danielle.
I have three siblings; one older sister, one younger sister and one younger brother.
My parents loved me very much.
They were devastated when I died, two months old in my mommy's body.
I don't know how or why, but I left my earth-family long before I wanted to.
I miss them very much.
They miss me, too.
I don't know what life could have held in store for me.
I could have stopped my two sisters from fighting all the time.
I could have given my baby brother a shoulder to cry on when he sat in his room, emotionally beaten by my sisters.
I could have given my mommy and daddy another reason to stay together.
Your mother wasn't worthy
Of your first breath or cry,
She was only worthy,
To see her baby die.
Now child, rise above.
Rise, child, to where you're loved.
I just love it when some idio makes an outrageous comment then blocks anyone who dares to challenge it.
I just shows that Pro-Life idiots like Iwearsweats are complete cowards, but what else is new on Osama Bin Laden's Supporter like him? It just shows that no one should take "Pro-Life" seriously since they turn tails when they are being challenged over their bullshit.
More like Pro-oppression since you imbeciles think you can assume control of other people's bodies. Stripping women of their rights isn't pro-life it's Pro-Oppression. That makes you Pro-Nazi and Pro-Osama. You are a group that exercises authority and power over other people in this case women. This is funny since you idiots love to protect when the Government wants to limit your rights. But you have no problem in censoring others pretty much showing you support any type of oppression as long is not about you.
It just shows how much of a hypocrite you are, you don't care for the rights of others only about you. You Pro-Imbeciles just want a baby to be born, but you don’t give a fuck about what happens to it after it. You don’t care about the person who has to birth to that child or what the circumstances are of the pregnancy. You don't care what happens after the baby is born, so that isn't pro-life, it’s forced birth extremism.
It's hatred of women or in anyone with a uterus. It’s all about power and control. You Pro-Life are vile and hateful people. If you idiots care so much for the baby how about you adopt the child yourself? You Pro-Life imbeciles always turn your backs when the unwanted child is born, so it is clear you don't care for them. You really don't care for the child and for the woman who has to give born to the child. You only care for what you want and nothing else. So spare me your hypocrisy, you don't care at all for them you just want to spread your hate toward women.
So you idiots are not Pro-Life you're Pro-Oppressors.
