I confess I will uphold this new law
preventing those not of gendered birth to live
(which includes me, though I am but a bore
who drones about transgender rights to give.)
But only if hypocrisy be shunned
and ancient laws be also set in stone
where adulterers into their graves be gunned
and those who eat of lobster meat be drowned.
Unwedded women who conceive a child
according to the Book of Numbers drink
tainted with the dirt of temple floor, piled
with curses 'til their womb aborts, I think.
I will support your Fascist condemnation
if such laws apply to ev'ry station.
