                                         IRE

           -Abortion rights advocates let their voices be heard-

   Decisions.. boycott.. one's own mind.. preference..

                  rights.. hijack.. discrimination..

                         Betrayal..

                 

  And soon we'll find the gate to hell 

                                     As he raises his fist to the sky

                                   

   Poisoned Water

    Its a prison from which we'd liked to be released...

      "I can't say it is safe."

  1. Jessica,
    I'm curious about your source(s) here. Where did these headlines come from? One thing I find really interesting here is the energy present in this poem. Protesting, betrayal, finding the gate to hell, and fear of poison water all create tension in this poem, though obviously in different ways. At the core of all of them seems to be concerns over safety, rights, and personal health.
