Hey mom I voted to day.
I sign someone’s rights away
A stranger ill never meet
a woman on the street.
I man working hard
Providing for his community at large.
Hey mom the bill I’m happy past.
At long last.



Hey Mom California voted today
taking people’s rights away.
They say it’s against gods wish
for them to commit
to one another.
hey mom they didn’t take by rights away.
today they took homosexuals rights away
and even though i know no gays
i cried today.
who vote to take them away?

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
