I'm here
to demand my face-to-face apology
for all those times you laughed at me
gaslit me to cover your apathy
in this catastrophe
catastrophe
catastrophe
you wrought.
Excuse me.
I'm here 'cuz you disparaged
your effects on my marriage
your role in my miscarriage
And while we're on the miscarriage - where's my fuckin' justice?
And - hey - not between just us
but your fuck ups?
Caused my DNA bust up
so nut up
admit
this shit
ain't just a dust up
You dirty -
BigPharma filth
the pills you peddle?
got some coughin', stopped some walkin'
put some in their coffin
But I still got air in my lungs
and though I struggle to step
this may take me out - but it ain't done it yet.
And yeah I am the voice
that rings out for the crowd
for the thousands and thousands
who tried to speak out
but were silenced when you shoved your degree in their mouths.
Yeah it took a few years
let you swagger and boast
marinate in your hubris
now it's time for the roast
And I? Well, I, for one, hope you choke
on the facts that we find
hope it weighs on your mind
that it's me and mine that the science supports.
It's time
for that apology
the one that you owe to me
and everybody
you poisoned
wantonly.
Ooooh. Nice! You should post an audio of you performing this. Even in the written form, the cadence is sooo apparent. Kudos! Also---the content is pretty powerful...but the technique is impressive!
ReplyDeletePowerful! Just Powerful! I can feel the angst, rage, pain and fervent determination in your tone. This is good, girl, really good. Thank you for sharing.
