About Me

A writer trapped in the body of a different writer.

Selfie!

while you were taking a picture of yourself
a pig flew above you
in front of a beautiful sunrise and sunset
with colors beyond description

as you pursed your lips into a duck mask
your true beauty was bound, gagged
and kidnapped into a white van
with one thousand others
that look just like you

when you posted your selfie
the art of the self-portrait died a little
(a lot)
the ghosts of one thousand dead painters & sculptors
tsk-tsking in shame from Eternity
