defeating democracy
the removal of Human Rights
one by one
© Rachel Green June 2025
While all my life the freedoms I have had
come from struggles by those who came before
But now the tide has turned to make life bad
for those who slip between cisgender law.
When rich men pay to rig the democratic vote
and pay to make their petty hatreds grow
with silver basted words they hate promote
and make of some minority a foe.
With Hitler it was Jews who took the fall
with Trump the immigrants who travelled there;
again the transfolk, Rowling has the gall
to deny the basic human right of care.
"Crucify the Taigs," the loyalists cry
"More Blacks, More dogs, More Irish" our reply.
