Heterocentric Problems II

Here is my rimes reaction to A Fine. I also think it has heteronormative problems of reproduction. Or maybe not. ?

The up and down side of our baby’s rococo crown
favored a certain destiny, that certain writ (we do not know Latin) dross
in the school yard. “What’s that?” Glow, spikes, Latin. “We’re not down
with your high-and-mighty.” Our baby bent a golden rod to floss
her first tooth. Oh, and it was not bad, we understood. A good toss
of bathwater we could never, so, drown,
maybe. But no, our baby is a good baby. If anything, we dropped the ball
on all chances of this normal that normal, and all.

a game, a rime, is punitive, as someone may lose if they are too queer or queer from the rules of the game. and this could be problematic, all, or this could be a chance to "dress in drag" (attend the ball!). i think it is better to dress in drag; for the challenge of queering the heterocentric is the (new, neo, nuevo) challenge posed by the rules (in drag). If not, we should let all games die or drown. Because, we could say, it's just too hard. Towel tossed. Or we could, with floss of wit, hands down, commit to making borders dross, and sport the new bard's crown.

thanks for playing!
