A woman in mans clothing
Bought and sold
for penance told
She thought He’d be more bold
taller
stronger
firmer
louder
if she could accept his role
They’d marvel at his gait
they’d all want to be his mate
and all want to procreate
if she left behind, was cleft behind
accepted what she was told.
Who was she but She in He to be but not to be too much
as such was manifold.

Presentiment untold. Feelings, yearnings and the idea, somewhere, something, is better than what I have and am now.

Duncan, It is a let down when someone or something falls short of our expectations but we learn, sometimes, to alter them based on who they really are. "I thought it (or they) would be different" has crossed my lips many a time...and I assume has been said of me many a time as well. I appreciate your words and your talent to provoke thought in your reader. Bravo! I love the quote in your profile image.
