Narcissus?
sometimes I seek confirmation
in a complete vacuum
or before the eyes of others,
in their hearts,
yet very often, images
of my own pictures
sometimes, at my cat’s touch
or, the touch of children
rather rarely in the work of others
humanity rejoices in every project
but more often in footprints
left by my ancestors,
and the scars left by my own people
not appreciated soon enough,
Narcissism? not so negative, you see?
