and to be an offspring
to be the tow and cleave
electrifying the current
distressing the water
to be the dare
the threat
the trial of power
the error of clemency

as
into my palms you've bestowed the
liability of
daughter
spawned fickle,
protrudent
fathering daze
to weakness my magnet swells vulnerable  
depraved
a beam of fragility
militantly devised  
though  
infinitely hunting  
to feel sincerely brave 
alive 
angelic as
eminence has been
toyed to seem
through my facade of defiance
you are worthy
you see
