# **Cake-Shaped** Too much. Not enough. Unique. More of the same. Too quiet. Too loud. We blame you when it’s not your fault: failing to conform to the square spaces around here. But I am more cake-shaped! If I could become fluid liquid, or gas and make myself adaptable, would you be okay with me near you? Don’t worry. Have trust. Wild. Welcoming. Serious. Loud. Deadpan. Whimsy. Sharp mind. All of the gifts given to me are taken as threats to the Powers that Be. Didn’t God make variety? Did He not create all? All the weird sea creatures? Even Leviathan? Tolerance is not enough. You were necessary from the beginning. If I tell the truth, why do you hit me? We are one and we are many. I am a hand. You are a foot. We are the others to each other, helping each other home. --- ![[img-cake-shaped.jpg|500]]
