Reinventing Myself


Today I am 13 degrees away from being me

Just one more step in the freedom procedure

The alchemy of personality merged with seeds

Machinery with copper parts on top

I am the walrus! No.....That's not right

That would be John or Paul or Ringo

So long as I have mechanical parts to wear

Some hair, a sombrero and my Zorro mask

I will never be myself completely puzzled

Dark glasses cover many sins of pretense

Lets start again at the beginning this time

At the beginning of time when I was little

no problem all the other three were mentioned. anyway i find the poem very interesting, it is a different kind of reinvention i like the line with the zorro mask and all.
