NEW YEAR INTROSPECTION PART TWO

first read: http://hellopoetry.com/poem/hot-cold-mess/ by Kelly Rose*

do not we all, 
in varying degrees, 
follow the dance 
of impression management, 
projection arrangement 
onto the big screen 
set before us?  
as art imitates life, 
and life imitates art... 
completing a circle 
a cycle of sorts, 
our lives being 
both life and art
you are you,
i am me 
with raw material 
gifted uniquely 
to we
and the rest being 
up to us?
Post script.

inspired by Kelly Rose, Hot Cold Mess...

hers was no doubt a rhetorical question, but it got me thinking, something you don’t really want to do...  and on this particular weekend, it being the first weekend of the new year, a time of deeper introspection than my usual weekend musing, this write, and several more, i am urged, no compelled to share, as an answer... of sorts, to her honest, question.  i pray she forgives the intrusion.
