You capture something really interesting about monarchy here! While there is a lot of negative things to say about social convention, it does provide people with a script! And having a script can help keep the peace!
Exquisite! "I woke up when the lights dimmed for the/ benediction./ our chaplain' s favorite poem was wild geese by mary oliver." so much said and unsaid in these lines!
"Words flowed/ out of my mouth like gasoline at the pump..." This is brilliant and very relatable! Sometimes when I'm walking down the road I wonder what it would be like to suddenly leap into a neighbors yard --- move through the squares instead of only along the lines.
You are SO welcome!
Thanks!
Tysm!
