This is not exactly Derb poetry, but I thought I’d be remiss if I didn’t share with you a bit of the folk-song hell present at the “March to Save Women’s Lives” this weekend. Here’s one sung by one Caryl Towner, with much audience participation:
I’ve heard preachers preach about the duties of a wife
I’ve heard husbands talk about the same
They say a woman must protect a zygote’s right to life
But every sperm does not deserve a name
(Chorus)
Every sperm does not deserve a name
Every sperm does not deserve a name
If so a man would found a nation every time he came
Every sperm does not deserve a name
P.S. I bet you didn’t know there is a “hospital merger fight song”: “resist the urge to merge”!
