My foundations

My foundations/ are in the universe/ my spirit is univeral/ despite all pressures against me/ to choose sides/ black or white/ man or woman/ gay or straight/ I am still a child/ and an old woman/ my blood is red/ my choice is not to choose/ I cannot choose/ I am the exception to the rule of choice/ I am one and all without exception/ I defy the rules/ I am me."-Dajenya
