I am not ruled by walls.

I am not ruled by the digits and dollar signs that puke my worth. I am not ruled by the distrust of others. I am not ruled by sirens and firepower.

I am not ruled by fear.

I am not ruled by lies.

I am ruled by the word. I am ruled by enough trust grown in my heart to Jonah a whale. I am ruled by the scent and flavor of only woman. I am ruled by laughter.

I am ruled by the everything wonder in kittens' eyes.

I am ruled by love.

I am a happy slave.
