I am fragile
A fragility that functions
As my hardness…
A façade masquerading as strength
I am strong…
I know my vulnerabilities
I am human
A humanity that functions
As my reason
For every awkward fact about me
I am divine…
I recognize the limitations of my humanity
I am a poet
Beyond my hardness
It is my humanity that gives volition to my fragility
I am god-like…I create my world
My life is a process of falling forward…
My future is inevitable
* From the book: “Of Paradise Despised...” By Roy Alexander Graham
