devolution of (wo)man

seems neanderthals and

cro-magnon primitives

enjoyed natural sex

(we’re here, aren’t we?!)

found shelter in caves,

knew how to build fires

to warm themselves yet

we can’t define gender

without stuffing modern

men’s brassieres who

drag tutus from sad little

girls (wishing to be boys)

who barely escape abortion

by own empowered mothers

who study eugenics under

professors of victim-hood

dependent on bloated

government programs

(or pogroms?) desperate

to control climate but pushing

homeless and disabled out in

cold needle-littered city streets

    Wow! Did you ever pack a lot of commentary on the culture into one poem! Our country has changed drastically (and not for the better) in a relatively short period of time. Those behind these changes don’t seem to realize the harm they’re causing. You’ve shed a shining light on the absurdity running amok. Well done, Lynn!

    It is a crazy world we live in when we have “girls (wishing to be boys)

    who barely escape abortion

    by own empowered mothers

    who study eugenics under

    professors of victim-hood”
