Culture runs backwards:
strength is weakness,
soft is empowerment-
dissuade yourself from
this rampant mindset
we've placed upon thrones,
instead find reserve to manifest
and bask in
this well of fluidity
that masculinity
can never hone

Heavy lies the crown, it is hard
be free with the wind
like a fallen leaf
and you will catch
a safe ride home
from Mother Earth herself;
even though her tread
is unsteady,
she flows

Only when you are certain
that there is nowhere to be
except right where you are,
will you find exemption
from the urge to shape
or control

Follow wherever
guides you to novelty-
then the adventure begins:
it takes one big leap,
but you will let go
until there is nothing
left to rescind
