Culture runs backwards:
strength is weakness,
soft is empowerment-
dissuade yourself from
this rampant mindset
we've placed on thrones,
find a quiet place
to bask in
the 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 swift ride home
from Mother Earth herself

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
and instead follow wherever
the next adventure begins-
it only takes one leap,
then you let go
