| I am not |
| I am not who you say I am. I am you. I am you with a million reasons and no good ideas. I am you with your head in the clouds. I am you with your feet in the sand. I am you with tousled hair and crooked teeth. I am you with a dream. I am you with an answer. I am you with your head in a book and your eyes on the prize. I am you with two dollars and fifty-seven cents. I am you in need of some change. I am you with a nicer car, a bigger house, a prettier wife, a picket fence, and no hope at all. I am you bored with America. I am you with a message. I am you after having given up on loving. I am you, only sarcastic, caustic and partial to bad jokes. I am you with less virtue and more vices. I am you deep in thought, deep in prayer, deep in debt -- in deep shit. I am you without the hindsight. I am you. Look Closely. |
