YOU, WHATEVER YOUR NAME IS

Said paterfamilias:

no bother, he of few words,

ever equitable, unflappable,

quietly doing his thing, regardless.

Humanly, we’re designed

to slot into types;

whether individual, tribal or collective -

kinds of archetypes, formats of allsorts

(whether racial, of psyche or form) 

and, to be sure, to begin with we haven't a clue:

purely present, as is

until we unfold or are informed

of this or that 

- with endless options.

Some, clearly are 

or simply not!

Some don’t care about labels,

whilst t’others pretend or 

mix and match, play games.

  Disparity and diversity are legion;

Evolutions selective tricks - until,

adding an asteroid, a latitude or so,

along with vagrant genes:

indeed, variety is not only spicy,

but the marvel and adventure

of it all.
