No, No, No, and No

I see you are courting him now,
and why, if I might ask?
Surely your life is full;
with your man and your children,
all the myriad things you do all day
and write about.
How could this futile and redundant debate
possibly interest you?
You talk of change to the changeless,
of bending to the unbendable,
of tolerance to the intolerant.
In this, you will be lowered to
the position of child, of dog,
you, who is the light of so many lives.
Were you chosen behind the scenes as delegate,
as the Trojan hourse, as it were,
to present the goods on our precious direction?
To be born into one's body and intellect
is pure chance (or is it?)
and why fight about who or what you are,
or where, or when?
So you're a North American woman
in the early twenty-first century...
No explanations, reasons, justifications, or defenses
required.
