To Matilda WashRaggedy Anne,
From Outdoor Prince Charming
She came to me
at five
at war inside
between Plan A
RightEgo Dominant
against Plan B
LeftEcoPolitical Wrong.
I came to her
to ask outside
for LeftYang NatureRights,
cooperatively supported,
ignoring RightYin SpiritWrongs
you see
(and hear and smell)
as NegativEnergy.
Our therapy
with GoldenRules
our Left Secular Identity
and Right sacredality,
sacred Princess secularity.
With outdoor solidarity voices
I learned to hear
then see
then sing
her view of tough
WinLose epic choices.
We ask her to let go
of all she hopes to NubianPrincess be
and all we offer in exchange
is how to lose less
Ugly StepSister Sorority
waiting for further
aging mediocrity
through growing domesticity
by matriarchal Yin repression,
RightBrain sacred oppression.
Now she dances
while we together sing,
calling back to birds
and squirrels
and bees
and crickets
in trees
gardening and pretending to Princess fly
and grace-filled walk
showing sharing esteemed chances
for WinWin princess prances
yet to be
with
or without
me.
She still prefers WinWin
Left deep learning
with sacred Right feeling
as do we all,
as do we all
invited to Prince Charming's ball.
I came to her
at war inside
between Left fading dominance
and Right feeling prominence
longing for resilient
belonging outdoor resonance.
