self

Not being the same

As others or myself before

Constantly reinventing,

Challenging, renewing

To be original

And different

To be me.

Why?

Because to be the same holds no appeal

To recycle, to reheat,  to reprise

Holds no challenge,  and what is not fresh

Fails to excite me

So how can it excite another?

To feel that I have done something mine

And mine alone

To be me for others.

To be me for me.
