Rusty Collar of Shoulds

She was a star-shaped soul
trying to fit into society’s round holes
one day she woke up and … changed
she sang a song to which there were
no words
she danced a dance to which there were
no steps
her soul awakened
with a ferocity born of revelation
she tore the rusty collar of shoulds
from around her neck
and cast it away
she sang the song of wanton freedom
and reckless beauty
