Professed pro-lifers like to spout
That stem-cell research is about
Immoral slaying of a soul
Albeit someone far from whole.
But what of someone whole but sick
Whose life is one you wouldn’t pick?
Unfit, unable, paralyzed,
Unhappiness untheorized.
Would you trade places with this soul,
The grief a hair shirt to extol,
A chance to give to God His due
For making at least part of you?
Are clinics aiding birth, no-nos
For chucking extra embryos?
Unless you deem as fair such strife
Please praise Obama, get a life.
