Something that just struck me, a political sonnet

I don’t get it There’s something that I just don’t understand about the thinking of friends on the right; these differences so rampant through our land often irrupt in vicious verbal fights. They say they want government to be small and not to interfere in what we do, and yet they seem really to want it all inside our bodies, bedrooms and love true. They want the government to makes some laws that disallow a woman’s right to choose, that choose our marriage partner without pause, that tell some people when to say “I dos.” I don’t see how the government’s long arm is small at all, in fact it’s doing harm. ©2009Margy
