The bits you’re born with, tell the tale,
\nIf you’re female, if not, you’re male.
\nIf the spirit is confused
\nAbout which she is or witch he’s not,<\/p>\n
He’ll be befuddled and bemused.
\nNo need to say what is, is not,
\nNo need to add things on
\nOr chop things off.<\/p>\n
The resolution to his confusion
\nLies in his discovering that he’s here
\nIn this time and in this place
\nInhabiting THIS body, with all it’s grace.<\/p>\n
He’s not in some time past,
\nHe’s not in some place lost,
\nWherein he dwelled in a body
\nNot of the same gender.<\/p>\n
To take a certainty of who one is
\nAnd introduce an uncertainty
\nIs the mark of an evil intent.
\nWe all have a right to be certain of who we are.<\/p>\n
The evil need to reduce the power and certainty of all others
\nSo they feel superior and safe.
\nFor they “know” in the blackness of their heart
\nThat if others were strong and powerful, they would be done in.
\nBecause that is what they would do to others if they had power.<\/p>\n
So when you see a person lie,
\nAnd say that which is, isn’t,
\nOr that which isn’t, is,
\nKnow that their intent is evil,
\nThey mean you no good.<\/p>\n
Your gender might be an accident of birth
\nIt might not match your expection, desire or past experience
\nBut it is a certainty, of that you can be sure
\nUnless the insane pull the rug out from under you.<\/p>\n
When you feel unsure of things,
\nRecognise that someone has reduced your certainty.
\nWhether you feel shaky or you feel down,
\nDwell not in your mind, it is full of traps for the untrained.<\/p>\n
Instead, go for a walk and look at things
\nTouch the walls, the fence, the bench, the trees,
\nIncrease your certainty that earth is earth
\nThat trees are trees, that green is green and brown is brown.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
