The singer wears a veil throughout the piece as a symbol of mourning for the basic human rights that were taken away from her. She opens the piece by walking down Grafton Street while singing dramatically texts from various feminist groups supporting abortion. 

As she continues walking down the street, the liturgical melody of Kyrie from the Catholic requiem mass is being played, for the remembrance of the women whose basic human rights were taken away from them. I hope that by this combination of text and melody, people will acknowledge the sad fact that the singer is actually begging for the rights of her own life. 

When the singer finally meets the guitar and saxophone she loses her voice almost completely, which is a metaphor for blocking and ignoring women's rights. 

As the piece progresses the guitar and sax lose their conventional sound  and become a raging chaos which joins together to the singers cry.

Special thanks to Katie Gillum for the brilliant photos!
