Abortion 1 Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

Abortion 1



Abortion
When my mother was pregnant
with me, she was too poor to get
an abortion and it was also against
the law in those far away days.
My aunt gave her the advice to try skipping
Luckily for me, mother
was not very athletic
and I was born.
Abortion should be legal, as a human right
but I think
a woman should think long and hard of the world
she stops the unborn from seeing
