The mystics
have often called it
the self-project -
the ego-project -
the project
of building an
image that we
can love
and adore
of ourselves.
Just shy of
worship.
Making ourselves
our self
that we can tolerate
or, learn
at least
to live with.
I would like
to appear pious,
or patient or astute
and filled with infinite
wisdom from the dawn
of time.
Expecting that there
is a core in there that
is stable and changes
not.
The I cannot
believe elsewise.
But,
what if the
thing
that remains
is always new.
But who is
the one inside
that gets to say
"I" do not
like who "I"
have become. "I"
need to change
that "I".
Who is it
that is
uncomfortable as
I watch my I become
more me.
That one,
needs a vacation.
