There’s much to be said,
without diplomacy,
said the Queen
to her Bear

In favor of ancient
transparently royalist wisdom,
“Don’t even look at me.
Either you got it,
or you didn’t!”

Either you get it
or you don’t
And I most certainly do!
rumbled Her Bear
to his Queen.

And yet,
said his Queen
to Her Bear

I feel something
must also be said…
A proclamation!
of win/win consorts
and copassionate co-investments
and mutually satisfying

CoInfestments!
roared Her Bear
with his Queen

Proclaiming cooperative economics
of love
Her most Royal
Peak Experiential
Universal HealthCare Decree

Which even the ElderPriest found long-winded,
“That’s my sacred,
not quite so sensory,
ecosystems territory,
Sister.”

To which the Queen
most regally replied
as if She had not just been conversing
with a nearby Straight White Trucker

Not the way we do it!

unless you have wandering issues
with your patriarchal vocation,
