Genderqueer-Part III

Stay with us. Don’t sink to the bottom
like a fish going to sleep.
Be with the ocean moving steadily all night,
not scattered like a rainstorm.
The spring we’re looking for
is somewhere in this murkiness.
See the night-lights up there traveling together,
the candle in its gold dish.
Don’t slide into the cracks of ground like spilled mercury.
When the full moon comes out, look around.

I love Kate (and her partner, Barbara Carrellas), when I lived in NYC I pet sat for them several times. They are wonderful, caring people with so much love and wisdom to share! I actually haven’t read My New Gender Workbook yet but I can’t wait. When you get the chance I highly recommend Kate’s original memoir, Gender Outlaw.
