Pill 1: Mifepristone
Man, White, Catholic, Texan
Prestigious Hell-Hound Cerberus
Fortify ice flames of men
Goose-step with the always righteous
Trounce smugly all equal rights
Flush Pill #1 right down the toilet
Rule as arrogant white pious
Crush every woman’s uterus
Crucify all women’s freedoms
Pill 2: Misoprostol
Put pistols in every pocket
Abort no eggs. Abort all sense
Fortify that jail for women
Kneel together, quote the Bible
Love your neighbor only sometimes
Decree pregnant females un-people
Sling out lofty virile lassos
Circle around a woman’s cervix
Lynch every woman’s freedom
