I really appreciate what you are saying here about labels, titles, names, the whole catagorizing thing we humans do. The fences. How can we just be open to non-catagorization? To open beingness? Thank you for exploring this so beautifully.

First of all: that fourth stanza! So good.

Second: the queerdoes! Are they in the novel? I sure hope so.

The constant unconscious categorizing is an essential and dangerous part of being human. Sorting is how we make sense of things. How we understand the world. Being conscious of it is critical. But, I really love what you have to say about being aware of the labeling and waiting for the reveal. So important.
