Govern Yrself Accordingly


i have dismissed
the minister
of emotional defenses,
distributed
confetti to all
the guards and given
faithful and ever vigilant
caution
several days off


the city
of me is well ready
to joyously receive and
rainbow celebrate
your unanticipated but
nonetheless profoundly appreciated
arrival into the intimacy
of our space


know that you are warmly
welcomed for howsoever long
you should choose to stay
here, you need no keys
no door is locked to you
every window is open


feel free
