Pluto is still a planet! Don’t dare demean it!: A poem

(Fuck off P Saint Paul!)

I was born into it! Call that a family?!! We had parties, picnics, holidays and get-togethers! Why did I always feel like getting up, amidst all that mundane banter, and hopping out for a smoke?!! Why did I feel I wanted to leave the morsels on my plate untouched, and keep silent and out of the conversation?! I felt the aloneness, the aloofness, the wariness in my veins! The feeling that a deviousness was taking over the dinner table; and the bete noir behind it was dragging us all down filling my siblings with a treason(!) while I was valiantly holding on to a straw pulling us all out of the Leviathanian disaster!

I could not live it down! And I had to stay up many nights; rustling in my solitude like a fallen leaf, headed for immortal intrepidity, daring the weather that is determined to brittle the leaf! I was never the lost one among my siblings, it was all of them who kept getting misplaced! You know how some Osirians wished to be Sethians, fearing the overwhelming Sethian power over them! But Horus never sells himself, even if he has only one eye, and blindfolded at that!!!

I thought I loved Mum and Dad (and I miss them) and true love! But how can I love them, if they are prone too?!! And true love is so far away?! I can’t even see her face in the pretentious masquerade but hostile melee that fills my streets!!

They are telling me Greece is an idyllic holiday location, but I am not ready for a vacation (pun intended)! Pluto is still in orbit, despite all the treachery writing it off! Pluto is still a unique, distinct planet, not just an enigmatic subplanet, according to me!!!
