Could be I deserve ev’rything I get!
How else can I account for my good luck?
Otherwise, I might now be really stuck
In situations that were much too wet.
Conjunctions between Sun and Jupiter
Enact a reign of fortuitous hail…
Sometimes I wonder why I was born male:
Symbolically, I’m the Spiriter,
Prompting women to follow their own heart,
Onward urging others to their freedom;
Instead I’m accused of having deceived
Loving ladies into splitting apart
Earthbound unions. And yet, when these ones come
Descrying, the believer is perceived.
(written in 1992)
