Virgins of the obituaries

Virgin of the obituaries

By

James Bredin

It was the nee in her obituary name that caught my eye,
I remembered her, a virgin in the fifties and I knew why,
She nearly drove me mad in those days so long long ago,
Strutting her big hips, up and down the street all aglow.

Some guy, older, bolder and richer than me got her attention,
They went off, got married and had babies; did I mention?
They slowly got older and eventually they too died,
Obituary lives all spent with lots and lots of pride.

And here I am, a keen observer of the passing parade,
As times passes by so slowly, decade after decade,
Sometimes but not often, I ask myself what it all means,
Does it amount to anything or are we worth a hill of beans?

And not being very religious, I don’t have the solutions,
Not like the priests, ministers, praying for your contributions,
But even they are caught in this trap of life and death,
And no one has the answers and we eventually run out of breath.

Soft on illegal refugees and criminals

Jean Chretien

Soft on illegal refugees and criminals

By

James Bredin

He got life in jail but eligible for parole in five days,
He has to promise to be good and amend his criminal ways,
And his name cannot be published because of some crazy law,
So nobody can know who he is or that a foolish law is flawed.

And our hypocrite politicians say everything is great,
No need for referendums or recall and little debate,
Insignificant events in parliament they might discuss,
But without recall or referendums you just can’t cause a fuss.

Did that terrorist refugee claimant deny he had AIDS?
Denied he trained in Afghanistan, how to use a grenade
Allowed in by the proud Immigration and Refugee Board,
Did they take the word of that refugee who seems to have scored?

The politically correct types were reading Trudeau’s Charter,
Written for “Everyone” including a suicide martyr,
Pompously written for every single person on the globe,
It doesn’t matter what’s hidden under his white pyjama robe.

And our harebrained legislators appear to be on crack,
No terrorist in Canada, they say, would dare to attack,
Because we’re so good and green and politically correct,
Christmas may even be cancelled, out of political respect.

And next week all women may be required to cover their heads,
Will it be a burka, a chador, a shawl, ordered by the feds?
Definitely from those appointed to the Supreme Court,
And we bend over backwards as if this was some sort of sport.

Abortion fetus holocaust

Abortion fetus holocaust

By

James Bredin

The unholy fetus holocaust abortions go on and on,
We seem to placidly accept these killings with a sleepy yawn,
The righteous activist feminist ladies all insist,
That this killing of unborn babies ls legal, so they persist.

These activists, politicians and the High Court judges agree,
That this is moral conduct and not godless debauchery,
Therefore everyone should be happy with our holocaust,
No change is legislation needed and no righteous outburst.

I envy those who have that faith and don’t need to debate,
No conscience needed when killing babies in their state of grace,
Hitler and Stalin would both understand this holocaust stuff,
The type of conduct they both loved interestingly enough.

We will eventually be told somewhere down the line,
That our numbers are decreasing and have been for some time,
We’ve been replaced by incoming pious immigrants they say,
Muslims who stay away from abortion clinics by the way.

Without recall or referendums, we’re stuck in this agenda,
Helpless to influence events or political propaganda,
So the fetus abortion holocaust will continue for sure,
A quick way for ladies of fashion to stay slim and endure.

Soft-on-crime justice

Soft-on-Crime Justice

By

James Bredin

They scream for social justice and claim that they are always right,
They want to make sure that criminal sentences are always light,
Their hidden soft-on-crime agenda always concealed in the mist,
Where no politically correct citizen would dare resist.

They say that there’s too many of their proud people in jail,
Too many minority members in there without bail,
So it is obvious that systematic racism is involved,
And most of these friendly criminals should be absolved.

So they should be released now and discrimination should halt,
Their crimes should not be crimes because it was not their fault,
It’s our society that’s prejudiced and we’ll just have to change,
When they’re all out of prison we’ll see what we can arrange.

And people will have to be more tolerant of their anxiety,
It will make for a more politically correct society,
It must be the cops who are at fault and everybody knows,
Politicians appoint Supreme Court judges and no one to oppose.

Why Not euthanasia now?

Why Not Euthanasia Now?

By

James Bredin

Homicide is a crime except for a fetus baby,
Where those at the abortion clinic deal death and no maybe,
A pregnancy tissue, they call the little live baby boy,
As they stand around with knives and pliers to destroy.

But quick death is banned for those dying in agonizing pain,
Or for those with some sort of painful cancer of the brain,
No physician assisted suicide for terminally ill,
Where even animals or horses that are hurt, we can kill.

Oregon and Dutch legislatures allow euthanasia now,
A Canadian should take this to our Supreme Court to endow,
Euthanasia should be a Right for those who want a quick out,
Same rights as “Everyone” in the Charter without a doubt.

So if we take the Charter serious, this should be a concern,
Because a quick tidy death should be our right to discern.
Or do we need some political leaders with lots of guts?
To invoke the notwithstanding clause – no if ands or butts.

No Charter Right to die

No Charter Rights to Die

By

James Bredin

We have Charter Rights to life but no Charter Rights to die,
We have to wait around to get old and sick and I don’t know why,
And unless you’re a fetus, you have these Charter Rights for life,
But if you are a fetus, they can cut you out with a sharp knife.

We’re allowed to arrange everything in life except how we leave,
We have to wait until we come down with some trauma or disease,
I propose that those in their eighties should be given the chance,
At euthanasia that could circumvent some sick circumstance.

No righteous goody-two-shoe religion if someone wants to go,
Change the Charter to a democratic quid pro quo,
Take this life-and-death issue to the Supreme Court this time,
Tell all the doctors that assisted suicide is not a crime.

If you believe in eternal life, that’s up to you, so keep the faith,
But don’t interfere with others who may want this debate,
Because it’s just a matter of time and we’ll all be dead,
So change the Charter soon and we’ll be that much more ahead.
