Partial-Birth Abortion Poem by James McLain
Partial-Birth Abortion
Ultra calculating waves.
Mommy looking at my toes.
My mouth is happy moving,
fluids going in and out.
I heard the doctor knows,
I can finally dream.
Beings led, to where?
Some one grasps my foot.
Cold metal opens, I can feel.
Quickly down I'm sliding,
I can't catch my breath.
Being pulled out to the parturient canal.
Backwards I hang out except my head.
Some thing hints that daddies caught,
going in the other way.
Pulling, pushing it is stuffed.
My skull is soft and soft is of.
Scissors they have made to point,
to pierce,
expand dimensions of my skull.
The scissors,
having done are then removed.
Catheter absorbs my mind,
me once your child.
My skull which has collapsed,
inhaled by the doctor with no brain.
And as for mommy does she cry?
I can not see.
Once a baby,
who has died is completely then removed.
In the United States, as of late 2008 the procedure was illegal. Purpose Partial birth abortion, or IDX, is performed to end a pregnancy in the mid to late second trimester. It is typically performed between weeks 19 and 26 of pregnancy. IDX is highly controversial.
'Definition Partial birth abortion, medically known as intact dilation and extraction (IDX) , is a method of late-term abortion that ends a pregnancy and results in the death and intact removal of a fetus from the uterus.'

Some physicians argue that IDX has advantages that make it preferable to other late-term abortion procedures in some circumstances. One advantage is that the fetus is removed largely intact, allowing for better evaluation and autopsy of the fetus in cases of fetal abnormalities.
