The injured bunny
Seen from miles in the sky.
Her child’s heartbeats can be heard,
And now swoops down the predatory bird.

“Care. No matter what.”
In flashing letters
They give their word,
And now moves in that predatory bird.

“Only 3%,”
It sounds absurd,
But few would dare to question
That predatory bird.

“The perfect, the privileged, and the planned.”
That’s the law of the land,
And consciences are blurred
By that predatory bird.

The quote: “I became a physician in order to help save lives. I am at once a physician, a citizen, and a woman, and I am not willing to stand aside and allow the concept of expendable human lives to turn this great land of ours into just another exclusive reservation where only the perfect, the privileged, and the planned have the right to live.” –Mildred Jefferson, M.D. (2003, American Feminist magazine)
