There are advocates and kind people.

Lost In Milieu
Sensory intake overstim whirls in conjuction with fighting compulsion of giving in to whatever messaging’s whim.
“Have Fun”
The lady said as she signed off from our phone call, forgetting she was speaking to someone struggling to keep her family housed.
Partner Pairing
I see a lot of bonding where relationships are sought as reinforcement for one’s “image” – or as they say “like attracts like.”
But in a way, I do not see the relevancy because this type of pairing can miss an essential truth if we are honest and pay attention to our selves.
We are always changing and growing.
The Bridge
Rather than put more effort into trying to align with others, she realized it might be time for them to reach out to align with her.
The Gap
Maybe that was the issue: she was hard working and determined.
“Real men” might appreciate this and deem her colleague out of respect.
But “real men” weren’t real men, after all, if they only wanted her as a pet.
Fallacy
They say that “Life is out to get us.”
From what I’ve experienced, it’s people.
Nature has always been kind to me.
“We Hold These Truths”
“To Be Self Evident.”
(Interpreting The Declaration Of Independence, alternatively)
Born. To. Be.
Royalty takes care of its people.
For Those Who Serve
If they are/have been promised, promises should be kept.
Privilege
“But she’s so ‘sweet and deserving…'”
No.
She hasn’t had to fight for right to evolve.
At The Gym
There is a man there who when he sees me has been contriving to “be at the right place and time” in zones where I am going.
This has been happening more clearly, yet I still go out of my way to avoid and not respond to him.
I don’t like being tracked and maneuvered upon – especially since I have observed his desperate and frustrated loneliness over many months.
I could be flattered by this attention – but am not.
I couldn’t help but notice for some time his interest in other people who then rejected him, and now he has settled upon me.
I have not been his first choice – and at this point, I would not want to be.
Back off, man.
Making A Day
Thanking people for being there in their relative ways; finding a compliment to give a stranger to help clear the waking haze.
(Big Time – Rick James)
Fear Of Lack
Propaganda turns us against each other.
Unraveling Complex
It is not easy to be discovering and acknowledging that a lifelong sense of shame has been from carrying the burden of others’ disowned accountability cast upon me at a very young age for crimes I discovered, but did not commit.
To Be “Good”
Under patriarchy has equated to condemning validity of our realities.
The Drawing
Moon, feathers, owl, and a woman’s side profile taking in the elements as empowering….
When I saw the layers of black, white, gray, and brown flowing so powerfully and gracefully, I knew I had to have it: it belonged to me.
But in obtaining this mirror imaging of my core essentiality, I knew that to mount it on my wall challenged tenants of patriarchy.
Unification
“We need a leader who can equally represent more than just one side.”
A Cure For Jealousy
(Joy – For King + Country)
Justice
Sometimes, no matter how much it is greatly needed or wanted, it is better to just even the playing field and restart toward better horizons.
Poverty
Makes it difficult to buy food, pay for (or even find and secure) housing – and definitely forces creativity onto the back burner in the struggle for survival.
Transition
I wonder who I could have been, but try to focus on who I will become.
Self Empowerment
The difference between now and then is that I have gained the status of maturity, and I have cultivated knowledge and abilities to self advocate.
Additionally, I have moved away from those toxic situations.
Lag
It occurs to me as I move through this latest phase of having been injured that those many times that I was picked on as a child and called “stupid,” or accused of ignoring subject matter, or not responding quick enough to people’s demands – just not immediately gyrating to their puppetry – was because of multiple bouts of experienced head trauma.
But I was inside here all the while, observing, thinking…
And not allowed any room nor encouragement for reemergence.
Sometimes, I wanted to scream.
Other times, I would just lapse into despondent, drawn out silence.
But always, I was just waiting…
Waiting for my time.
Waiting for safety.

Ten years younger vs. ten years older: twenty years garnered in a man’s favor.
Messaging
She might get love if she:
Was silently vacant
Didn’t ask questions
Accepted evasion
Endured derision
Waited neglected
Allowed projection
Yielded position
Permitted pain
Quietly reflected
Dissociated
Creatives
They say we are wrong for daring to dream the impossible…

Without Fear
What great advances could we accomplish with thoughtful, inclusively moral innovation?
Projections
A man once complimented me that I had nice skin.
But it wasn’t really about me, or my being.
It was about him categorizing.
No Game
Because I refuse to pretend and posture, I have written myself out of the dating scene.
Redemption
It is easiee to overcome challenges if one has a grip on their own sense of purpose.
Trust
It must be extended mutually between parties wishing to bridge to congruent understanding, yet should be balanced with good boundaries and diligent discernation.
Inclusive Jurisprudence
Governance and/or guidance which takes into consideration an individual’s, culture’s, or species’ set of its own defined values in order that all parties involved in a given situation and/or action may benefit.

Incompatability
Since when has love become a bad word?
Since there have been those who did not want it.
The Work Of Capitalism
In my parent’s generation, they could work only part-time and still meat housing and survival payments easily.
This ratio needs to be restored so that citizens of society may invest in and capitalize upon discovering and contributing creativity and solutions to present day and future “crisis.”
Here, I have used the word “capitalize.”
It is time to give “capitalism” a new definition – one as a hallmark of true re-evolution ushering in prosperity for all under nourishimg governance.
Of vourse, there will be aspects to work out and shore up for any particular system to work – and I am not saying that all sovieties should adopt this.
But where Capitalism has cause harm to “The Commons,” it should be adjusted for reparations and a more inclusive vision.
(Fire And Ice – Pat Benatar)
Fire And Ice
I am angry at the majority of acclaimed males of my species preferring younger females, and I am angry at the younger females thinking that they have a right to propagate male attentions away from more appropriate age ranges of matching maturities.
This fantasy indulgence robs generations of actual bonding within marriages and collaborative cohesion within families.
When I had to become a real woman as life presented harsh difficulties to be overcome, I ended up having to carry most of the burdens.
Later, I was projected upon and discarded because, as a result, I developed my own voice and opinions and grew into a more well-balanced human being,
In effect, because I evolved, I was then seen as flawed, faulty, and no longer desireable to male fantasy.
I have seen this pattern repeated excessively all around the world, externally.
The message being, if a real woman wants love and commitment, she is “out of luck” because she no longer qualifues for matching up with male “pubescent” fantasy in her maturity.
And even if the diminished role of a woman is maintained, males are still unsatisfied, for then the woman is no longer “the prize” once she is acquired, and men get “fat and high” off their overindulged senses of self entitlement.
Having already been granted “the king’s bounty,” they then turn to other pursuits in their gluttony.
Males are still not expected to face their own weaknesses and flaws in relationship building, and therefore, they are still not held accountable for their behaviors and the negative impacts they continue having on our ever-rifting societies due to their skewed partner selection processes and infidelities.
Male Ego
The fact that many men continue to prefer and pursue “unjaded innocence” and “perfection” of beauty in a female is an insult to women who have proven their worth, bear the scars of real world survival, and more deserve the regard of mutual admiration.
Moral Ambiguity
To what lengths and levels are within tolerances?
Testimony
She was raised in a land of ignorance and trees.
They cut down the trees.
Of Service
I have been supporting others.
It’s time I raise my own status.
Up, And Then Down
I saw a young woman leaving a food bank and could tell that she was of The Faith and likely someone safe for me to help by giving transport.
After she accepted, I drove us briefly to my home where I could give her my favored foldable and smooth-moving garden cart because I had recognized that stalwart determination in her body language to carry a heavy burden that wears and frustrates the soul from toil that I have often mustered up to.
I thought to myself, “Not today, that effort is no longer necessary.”
She was surprised and seemed pleased, and we spoke about her country and perhaps teaching each other our languages.
Then, after I left her, there was a young, bedraggled person walking on the street, looking exhausted, carrying personal belongings, and dragging her sleeping bag while looking confused and despondent.
But I had already given away my cart, and what this youngling needed would be way more complicated.
My heart dropped for lack of feeling the ability to also extend to him/her – a youngling of my own country.
For if I did, it would become a way different level than I can carry or tend to currently.
It doesn’t feel right…what is my role in these workings?
Extending a brief, compartmentalized hand vs. taking on responsibility for another person’s survival.
Still, I went back to check on them, but they were gone.
They might have been heading toward a nearby shelter.
