Teenage girls
Judged for been pregnant
Chastised for grows inside
Judged and in turn blamed
Judged on their accent
Judged on their clothes and jewellery
And their quest for shallow glories
They are kicked
and left with the blame firmly at their door
But isn’t it this judgemental attitude
One of the reasons the young so often expect little more
The narrow minded hypocrites
that decry them
The same hypocrites that never reached out
and held them in the first place
They are told life is over before is begun
They are pregnant – it is not a terminal illness
They are still fragile – still young
When people judge so hastily
They should judge themselves
Dust down their mirrors
and then examine their self
Teenage girls
Judged for being pregnant
And by the haughty taughty chattering classes
Shivering behind closed mind values
Is it any wonder these girls
feel so little connection to society
A society that condemns and judges them
And stumbles around in its blinkered frailty
The problem is not the teenage girls, it is the values
of a society that does not want to take responsbility
with people who judge and punish so quickly
