Un-queue

I am in the process of un-queuing.  I never was much of one for lining up, but this seems different. This is part of the process of subtraction, and hence, of redefinition.  As Diocesan Convention approaches, I am even more on the sidelines, learning how to kiss this thing, whatever it is, on both cheeks.

I un-queue,
Step out of line,
Stand to the side,
Or perhaps better yet,
I sit,
Redefine
What I need to do
To be me:
Accept it,
Hold hands with it,
Maybe give it
A kiss on both cheeks,
The way the French people do.
I un-queue.
