When I look in the mirror
It is not a picture,
It is a road.
I will walk
into these wide questions
where there is room for clarity.
..
The sky offers
a speck of dust
shining in blinding sunlight.
Sleep sears a dream
somewhere inside
the backside of my eyes.
...
What is my work?
Where am I going?
How do I know?
I want to change the world,
but I can barely get my daughter
to eat breakfast.
...
I will ask the hard questions
because that is where
the future lives.
All I know
is that
I am not finished.
...
The way through myself
is the way to myself.
The new self
will be a true self.
