Event Currents

Friday, January 18, 2019 by Christopher Matthias

Feminism laps the shores
of humanity wave after laborious wave
Churning and changing herself
Adapting the intensity, flow, and course
As each contact ebbs the
Stubborn stone forward
Grinding grit finer and finer.

How long must the gail and tide move
Until her counterpart
Is convinced to join the tidal dance
Machismo becomes
Manliness discovers
Masculinity in search of
Manhood revealing
Mansuetude.

Sway.
