In referring to myself, I refer to a glamour: A suggestion of self, Rather than an assurance. In truth, at times my own self feels As if an alien marooned on earth Forced to play a role unlike itself All to blend in, all to cease being. As if to look in the mirror in shock, Whispering softly: “Who is this?” Unsure of whose face you’re wearing. Despair! I must know who I am. -k.r.r.
