Bless you, the challenger
who dares to ask why.
The woman of many faces
shown through her shoulder and ankle.
Praise you, the analytical
who stresses the importance of words
and has the ability to do so.
A side of you that I can see.
You can realign this warped world
by picking me apart
and demanding answers.
Your brilliance resonates within me
like a canyon, where it exists as I am so.
I am not a truck,
I am not a baseball cap,
I am not torn jeans,
I am not ESPN,
I am not a toned physique,
I am not name brand,
and you make that acceptable,
Challenger, Analytical,
Birth to the new world.

Again I am extremely impressed with your vocabulary and your ability to weave this quilt of perfect words. I am very glad I saw you in the CB.

I love that things you 'are not' are replaceable, overly-cherished nothings that exist in today's world. Though I'm not sure I quite understand the meaning of line 4.
