Start up top. You may have these piercing blue eyes. Carefully carve them from the sockets. My nose? It is all yours. Pinch it off into your palm. The lips that belong to me, Take them off gently. And move to my voice box, It may contain some Notes of importance. Down to my rib cage, Please use the bones sparingly. But, below my stomach Behind my intestines Secured behind the Thick walls of my womb Sleeps an innocent life. A life that you may not Claim for your own. So travel further. You may take my legs. One or two, Gracefully saw the Appendages from My boney hips Though they are quite short.. They end with small feet That you may Also use for someone else. If you do so choose. Carry on with the atrocious mutiliation. Take anything else you desire But leave that tiny gift. It is not a life to claim Take my entire body Before you wreck a life Who has not chosen To acquire such fame |

Extremely impressive, horror visions to demonstrate how much you value the precious gift of life that pulses within your womb. I think you succeeded in your intent. May we respect new life when it is offered to us! Against all the fear-based negative reactions. And may the babies grow in beauty and bloom. Tough job. Love, Margherita |
