You're the village...

Really!
How sexist?

Well you seem to associate competitive ZeroSum WinLose
with strong aggressive patriarchal effectiveness

“Tessellate” 

on the surface
it’s easy to see
we tessellate

decorative ostentatious
flirtatious lives taking risks 

with the other sides
planned strategic functional 
quantity rich quality lacking

Human

opposites 
like magnets attract, it all fits

Pain is what I need not to inflict myself with – just what...

revelling sprites dark pearls
Corvidae shades

highly functioning
dysfunctional plural

perceived non-unique 
spiralling into shape

than white spills 
from their eyes
light from their shining 
hidden away
