Progression

3.

i have ceased
to be
amazed.

2.

i have a habit of not
finishing things,
or,
not letting things finish,
be finished,
finish me.

1.

i will,
henceforth,
be brutally honest
to myself,
and true only
to myself.
i cannot figure
it
out
(out)side
of myself.
it is anxiety over
the future,
the unknown--
i'm not any better,
no better
than anyone.
i have been him,
am him,
am
other,
the other
than myself.
i see myself
reflected
in every
one's
faces,
my own face
is not
my face.
