Flaunting Hypocrisy

Kim Davis of Rowen County,

Kentucky, is a clerk

Who's paid to issue marriage licenses

At her place of work--

 

Marriage licenses to ALL couples

Entitled to that doc.

Her reasons for denying some

Are…let's say a crock.

 

"The public is my boss" is what

She told the news last year.

And treating people with respect

Is something she holds dear.

 

But acting under "God's authority,"

Davis has refused

To issue licenses to same-sex couples,

Whose rights are being abused.

 

Promoting a cause célèbre seems

To be her grand desire.

Now she's only put herself

In the line of fire.

 

She says she's defending the “sanctity

Of marriage.” What a laugh!

Let's see what her own record has

To say on her behalf:

 

Five months after divorcing hubby ONE

She gave birth to twins--you see--

Who were adopted by hubby TWO

But fathered by hubby THREE.

 

Records show that she's married again--

Marriage number FOUR.

Complicated? Yes, BUT

There's something to underscore:

 

Divorce here is NOT the issue;

The issue is her hypocrisy.

But Davis has it all cleared up

In HER special form of theocracy.

 

Davis, you say your sins are "washed clean."

Fine, if that's what you want.

But YOU--defender of the sanctity of marriage?

NOT something YOU should flaunt.
