They christened me Pink
in my downy, natal cradle.
It was then that I received my yoke:
I was to pale
'neath the obscure shadow of the Blue--
my rosy blanket-veil of subservience,
swaddled eternal in woman's dues.
They christened me soft
and henceforth i was to give, and so I gave
and caved to the ferocities of Indigo-coated generals.
i must always Behave!
They christened me not
a mindless bot;
I think, reason, and ponder.
So I made the trade from rose to sky
and have since found it ever fonder.

Well be revised almost indefinately.
