One birth, Two Parents and me


I have been glad to be told the truth about the way I came to be.
Because I was shown the damaged bedstead where my Mam gave birth to me,
I was told about the birth-pains which mothers have to bear.
And I was shown the scars the calipers made upon my forehead there.
I was told that I was privileged to be told about the birth pains of mankind.
"Many children have never been quite sure about their folk who kept them blind.
I think I have been a gnostic since the moment I was born.
Because my folk were truthful about the process of being torn,
>From the innards of the woman for the course of our earthly sojourn.
Many children are kept ignorant about the entire sexual enterprise,
And this is most important when we face the science of the birth exercise.
But I am glad the science era has explained it truthfully.
Evolution seems a truer tale than religions with a lying pedigree.
I do not believe in fairy tales of the creation of Adam and of Eve,
I reject the Bible on the first three words that it shows to me.
These are " IN THE BEGINNING .."for nobody really knows "
Whether the cosmos is eternal or just a brand-new production for all those,
Who just chance to get their time to live upon the cosmic scene,
When we have nuclear missiles but have them where they are not seen,.
These are problems for global political thinkers -- especially todau.
When A European Nation may not be extremely far away.
And the more important GLOBAL DEMOCRATIC PARLIAMENT may get the light of day,
For the people of the planets around the central SUN may soon see,
We most need a NASA THEORY to make our society living life war-free
But we need two sexes for making people and this is really why,
It is nonsense to have same-sex marriages if children are the aim of family.
I gave up same sex interests when i was ten or so.
Because I could see homosexual practices were not the way to go,
We must adhere to heterosexual unity to create a plan for peace.
so let us all be sensible and let world social unity make all warring cease.
