i may be confused and often uncertain
but i know i’m a BSW binary “she” woman
feel threat of whine lobby with sheer power to steer
education and culture in indoctrination queer
to flaunt “rainbow lifestyle” and banish cake bakers,
to finish off florists and expose photo takers
demand access to children to drag recruits in
destroy any churches who dare mention “sin”
i remember how, with hopes for a child,
man and woman vowed life in promises wild!
when we agreed to disagree, honest speech was still free
at birth accepted biology, sex seemed self-explanatory
people think we’re more intelligent today
let’s “follow the science” they say…yeah, okay
let real girls compete in “girls’ athletics” fairly;
and ovaried females win “Woman of Year” squarely
DSM once viewed gender disphoria as problem
maybe surgical mutilation not best way to solve ‘em
if “woke” business platforms would be truly inclusive
they’d tolerate all values, not be diversely abusive
double-X-chromosomed, i’ve got my pride too
so don’t bully grandmas who talk straight with you!
Pride is the mask of our sins. ~ Palestinian proverb
