Only Through a Looking Glass Darkly
by
Bob MacKenzie
To be or not to be,
who is to say
that is the question
which faces the churches
which faces the lawyers
which faces the women,
the woman in pain.
Where shall this zygote go,
bucket or beddy-bye.
that is the question
which faces the pregnant,
question:
"to be or not to be"
and the answer is seen
only through a looking glass darkly.
