autonomy

what if the mirror
set out to tell a new story?

are you kidding?

the photograph
took on a life of its own?

i don't think so.

change you
the light of the sun
on face of the earth?

so such a feat of autonomy is

all limits you place on yourself
are but denial of reality

you did not make yourself
nor do you have any power
to change
what you are

look but inward
to see the Infinite Depth

can you find one place
where you stop
and another starts?

one independent view
of a brother
that is not yours?

so it is,
the world is but
your child,

every detail.

would you nurture her
or war?

that image in the mirror
is never anyone but you

no way around it...

face to face
at last
with the devil

now is the time
to take of the mask
