Metrosexual rebirth

Metrosexual rebirth

Born twice to women,
once as a man,
I try to reconcile the yin, the yang
of all existence,
mine too fragile to examine close,
I withdraw to the edge
with a daily dose
of pills
to overwhelm nerves,
to deaden their nerve
to shake me, make me,
choose between sexual morphs
of a minor specie of monkey
acting like gods
aping intelligence
that can't except
singularity:
I, me, mine
and me myself,
the yin yang of duality
I envision as one,
my self.

The term metrosexual does not seem to have a clearly defined meaning; but, I think of it as referring to the androgenous gender bending that Gen Y men practice in a way that goes beyond where Gen X or the Boomers ventured. Men are no longer bound to traditional narrowly defined gender roles.

ME:

I went to hear David Sirota who wrote Uprising. He brings up the issue of change. His premise is that change comes from below, not from Washington and that change comes slow. He has great insight into the political landscape and populist movements.

I did accomplish something: I switched my voting registration to Montana today.

Also, I managed to get to Caras Park and had a buffalo empanada. Nice crowd, but not as many as at lunch yesterday. I also had a lavender shortbread earlier. I'm slowly working my way through the local menu.

The heavens just opened up. Rain! And thunder ... hopefully no fires.

Montana: 87º at 22:00.
