my beautiful friend
Her body passes with adjustments
but her soul will endure the maim
"Martyrs and others, dying causelessly"
but this a death of the unborn.
She finds strength above their carping
and the waving of their red flags high
in a parade of their communal rights to what is hers.
what would this one have been named? Marx? perhaps Lenin.
Her life is salvaged
but their revile has stained
the essence of her woman
but her soul will endure the maim
"Martyrs and others, dying causelessly"
but this a death of the unborn.
