Kavanaugh Controversy

There was a woman brave enough to tell the world that she had been assualted
But she wasn't helped, no
She was told she was lying
And that her perpetrator was getting a place in the government
And definetly not going to jail
She was told that a man evil enough to sexauly assault her was going to be rewarded
That he was going to repersent this country
In the supreme court
He is going to see if laws are against the constitution
After he had done something that was against the very document 
The rules that hold our society together
So don't say how much he had been through
Think about how much she had to go through

    This is a beautiful poem!
    I love how you made it more dramatic by using a poem form! Keep on writing for what you believe in!

    this poem is amazing Sarah! you should be proud of your great ability to write about what you believe in, at the same time as making a beautiful piece! good job. I feel like, using this poem, young women can start to realize that the people who assaulted them are wrong, and they need to stand up about their rights and what they believe in.

    I'm going to be honest with you - I get the feeling that you stole my title and just flipped it around to fit your views. I won't go any further into this. I really don't appreciate it.

    Bookworm-I understand that you might think that this is copying you, and I agree is does look like that. But maybe this person just did that because they are speaking out for what they believe in, just like you did with your own poem around this topic. Will at my respect, think of that.

    I understand that they are speaking up for what they believe in - that I have no problem with. I just don't like that they most likely took the title and topic from me. It's not creative at their expense and unoriginal. Really, I have no problem with this person saying what they believe in. I'm not happy that this was basically a stolen idea that I came up with myself, title and all. I'm not going to speak about this political view, though.

    We are all human beings. I feel like we are all equally being disrespectful to each other and we should just agree to disagree. We are all parts of the world, and I don't like that each of us are making each other feel bad through comments and opinions. I don't want to hate anyone either. I'm sorry about the comments on your post about feminism, bookworm, and I will respect everyones opinion from hear on out. Have a nice day to everyone.

    Thanks for your apology, activist_fieldhockey. No hard feelings.
    I myself will also respect the opinions of those around me, as you are doing. You have my word.
    All the best.
