once upon a time, there were two people
they came from a country that was overflowing with hot sun and daylight
and they came to a new land brimming with promise.
all they really wanted was for their unborn child to be a son
and that he would have blooming, brilliant life.
but alas, their unborn child was a daughter
and she was born on a night blacker than onyx or ebony
the winter wind screamed when she emerged from the snow
for instead of sun, she had stars in her eyes
and ice running through her veins.
this was the first rebellion.
