Circumcised on May 15th 2019

Today, Alabama decided, I mean, 25
 old white cismen decided,
 to put womens lives in jeopardy
 effectively criminalizing abortion, &
 Taiwan legalized gay marriage,
 & the U.S.'s first gay Muslim judge
 was found at the bottom of the Hudson.
 
 All the while, I watched and worried over
 My bruised little mushroom head.
