Been watching
myself for years:
mirrors in the morning
shop windows
eyes of strangers
faces of friends
sighs of aquaintances
murmers of critics
feints of opponents
letters from businesses
lovers’ hesitations
and I’ve been
measuring my ability
to blend into a crowd
grab attention
tell a joke
confess a sin
lead a revolution
accept failure
and I’ve decided
it’s okay to start
living. Amen.
