Snow Leopard (Pt.4 Of The Jungleuphoria Mini-Series) Poem by Axley Jade Blaze

Searching for:
"A Female
Pale skin, hair chin-length and midnight black
Curly cues, framing a face of innocent perfection
This is my queen, my topmost pick
She is my number one selection."

On Her Profile, He Read:

"You mean Man's fantasy;
For the permanent erection?
MAN, and his dim-sighted
Disney Princess obsession? "

She Wrote To Him:

Well, I was never a princess!
Nor was I a saint.
A "sexual angel."
The virginal prostitute
A portrait YOU invented
Composed
You decided to paint
I wasn't a myth or a tinkering nymph.

I wasn't conceived to preserve or rescue you.
Nor did I need deliverance through you!
I capitalized by taking my cue from you
Your fantastical dream realms
Something constructed
By man, who has some imagination,
But translates it wrong, vision obstructed!
And, collectively, also destructive.

…So who am I now?
I'm ready to rise, I'm going rogue.
….Ready to be
A Queen perched on her own throne
Ruler of her OWN palace
Totally fearless.
And, ready to shout this.
So you can hear this:

I was never Snow White!
This is YOUR misconception
The over-estimation
Natural selection
The helpless, defenseless
Impression, suggestion
Impossible expectations
Fantastical storybook relations
…I was only human
And, you call this deception?
It's not up for debate.
I'm shouting this to you,
Before this date, though it may
Be Too Late:

…You want my disclosure?
My bio, my stats
My sultry she-girl profile?
…It's one sentence long,
Listen closely,
As I read from my file:

Who am I?
I said it before.
I am Fearless
Will take the plunge
Any dare there is.
God Damned straight
I'm Her!

I am her, and more!

Damned straight you'd better
Be Ready To Hear Me Roar.
