- Do you know me? -
Have we met?
Surely you must know me
because here you are today.
Today you seek to help me make a decision
reserved for myself and my fetus.
Today you tell me I am wrong, I can't make my own decision and
you seek to decide my fate.
Surely you must know me.
Were you there as I struggled as a child in a single parent home?
Perhaps I missed you along the way.
Did you know the doors closed in my face
I had to force them open?
Although your face is not known to me
surely you must know me.
YOU SAY WE'VE NEVER MET!
How then do you dare with a smug indignant face
intrude on my personal choice?
How dare you lay your body
in my path?
I will walk over you.
I will crawl under you.
My choice will be mine, because now-
it's quite clear- YOU DON'T KNOW ME AT ALL!
