Measurements
What do I see when I look in the mirror?
I am made of measurements.
I measure the space between my thighs,
The width of my arms,
The time since I have last worn my glasses.
I measure my achievements,
The weight of my successes,
The heaviness of my failures.
I measure the sharpness of my jaw,
The veins on my hands
The blue in my eyes.
I measure my intellect,
The depth of my vocabulary,
The numbers on my report card.
I measure humanity,
The accomplishments of others,
The good and evil of society.
I measure myself,
My looks,
My mind,
My intentions,
My actions,
My triumphs,
My shortcomings,
My reputation,
My future,
My past,
Me.
