Children's Games
In another life I'd be the perfect house wife. I'd bake chicken pot pies that tasted rich with flaky crusts and velvet saucy fillings that are delicious. I'd make morning pastries to feed my adoring husband before I kissed him goodbye, before he headed to work. When busy, I'd be rich enough to buy treats or trade with friends for them. I'd complete all my domestic tasks while I worried over my husbands return, without a way to communicate with him. By night I'd wait for my husband to sleep then sneak away to a gathering of friends for the meeting of my secret society. The only break from my god fearing womanly ways as the domestic matriarch of my household. So much stronger than my female form exhibits. I'd pardon myself, knowing my actions aligned with the times. I'd be an artist in my own right. I'd have a male pen name that society comes to adore, as much as my husband does me. A Renaissance woman during the Renaissance. Full of new ideas and the energy to embrace it.
