Who Am I?
Who am I- a wolf or a chicken.
 The hunt reflects through the mind of a wolf.
 No pity, no gentleness remains. 
 Just the hunt is what could be mine. 
 
 This facade hides who i am.
 Through all these other guises. 
 Wanting to be the me i do not yet know. 
 I stare at the unknown soul i have created.
 Yearning, "Who am I?"
 I have shattered like the frailest glass.
 Who am I? Who am I? Unexpectedly-why?
 A being from inside tries to escape.
 I hold onto it as much as possible.
 
 Buds try to hard to be roses.
 And in trying this hard
 , they please their gardeners.
 but never try for themselves.
 
 But what about ME?...
 What is this day?
 I sow empathy but reap apathy.
 Day ends with confusion
 Became a chicken, ground soaks up my seedless thoughts.
 
 Between Booth Street fights, 
 as if boisterous again.
 Happy and confused i stand.
 A LADY,
 A FRIEND,
 A FAILURE.
 
 Who am I? Who am I? My exploration continues.
 Myths and pictures, but i am nowhere to be found.
 I run, as if from a tornado of thought.
 From pain, scorching my gasping lungs.
 
 I wonder with you Cynthia Lynn...
 For within this maelstrom of malice
 I too am a being,
 striving for enlightenment.
