I’m not a gender bender
or person of color - societal descriptive norm
I have little faith
shy of fairy tales and Mother Nature
There are few left
in my blood line
…yet I am relatively not alone
And there are days
when the sun
comes up
and I don’t rise - to the occasion
Night falls
and sleep
is a reluctant guest
I am a visitor
in a world of strangers
and you may never
know my real name
My true calling
has been my only truth
my only companion
in the solitude of creativity
