“Composure moves against the definition, and belief that
composure is being still, and contained. Composure is movement within stillness
the way power contained is not contained, but bristles beneath the discipline
of character, restraint, and wisdom. Within a woman it merges with the
capacity, the power and ability to give birth and hold a nations’ families
together. Within men it is the power of knowing force and power and how to
compose character and fairness around them the way his woman's arms embrace him
and his passion, and the way her legs can wrap around his waist to balance his
essential soul enabling him to protect his family better.
"What is composed with you?" an Elder asks. – Gregory
