ME?

 ME?


when you point to yourself

as in "i’m coming with you"

your retroflexed fingers point where?

not your head or your heart

your gut or your toes

but somewhere behind the top of your sternum 

well i do

and then my perception of ‘being’ oscillates

somewhere between the tips of my fingers

and the back of my head 

and is projected through my eyes at you

this loop continues looping until

either you are no longer there

or my insistence on ‘me’ loses pertinence

everything else about one’s character 

is a superficial construct
