Here is today's freebie poem, inspired by kyleri.
Thou art God.
Thou art Goddess.
Thus the lines are drawn,
men in this circle,
women in that circle.
Where do I stand?
When do I stand there?
What do I wear while I'm doing that?
I am neither here nor there,
this nor that. I am as much
male as female,
feminine as masculine.
In what aspect of the Divine
do I see my reflection?
"Ahey, sister," says Trickster,
settling on my left shoulder.
He is wearing a loud pink skirt
and a brassiere stuffed with flowers.
"Ahey, brother," says Trickster,
settling on my right shoulder.
She is wearing leather pants
and a huge phallus made of paisley cloth.
He hands me a pointed stick.
"It's time to draw your own lines,"
he says, so I scratch a circle
around my bare feet.
She hands me a drum.
"It's time to dance to your own beat,"
she says, so I flatten my hand on the head
and make music.
Soon all of the men and women
are staring
at my divine madness.

Thou art Goddess. Stand here.
And I am the Walker Between. Stand nowhere.
Cross the line, walk on the edge, dance where no foot dare step.
Pass through all the lines, all the walls, and dance as the mountain rests.
Only Love is constant, and only Love's forever-motion can dance.
Now sit, and let us begin.
Yay!
