stardust

I am a miracle of stardust. A thousand particles that came together to form the unique combination that would produce me. 

Hello protector with your widespread stance, hands on hips, sturdy chest-out stature. I picture you in spandex, the superhero come to protect the little girl from harm.

Always a masculine figure, though I can’t see your face. Definitely a cape. 

Thank you protector, you’ve served me well. Now, 

Stand aside. 

Pivot on your right foot to align your left perpendicular to me.
Behind your strong facade crouches a little girl.
