Sperm Bandk Lawsuit Poem by John F. McCullagh

There is sperm for sale and wombs for rent
For same sex couples it's cash well spent.
While heterosexuals breed their own
Gay couples, as yet, cannot clone.
A lesbian couple who had the itch
is suing their sperm bank for 'bait and switch'.
They wanted a Caucasian baby
and had requested sperm from vial '380'.
The donor of that sperm was white,
Handsome, smart, just 'not their type'
They were given another's sperm instead
And an interracial child was bred.
It seems they were given vial '330'
The vials, it seems, were marked unclearly.
An honest mistake by a nearsighted boomer? -
or one with a twisted sense of humor?
A civil suit will go to trial
seeking damages for a mixed race child.
If their motion to dismiss should meet denial
The 'bank' will suffer premature withdrawal.
In which event bankruptcy looms
For the bank that supplies the sperm for wombs.
