Identity Crisis

Identity changes

Melts and freezes

Speeds up

Then slows

Like breath

Fogging windows

Like rain

Catching fire

Like milk

Becoming bitter

Like smiles

Stuck like Velcro

A robot lost

Programming

Deleted

Identity changes

Until I find me

Yet again

  1. Yet again
    I find me until
    Identity changes
    Repeated programming
    With micro-changes
    Related
    New save-point
    Not lost
    But changed
    Direction
    Core values
    Like rebar
    The rest
    In constant flux
    Wearing out
    Wearing in
    Repainted
    Recoated
    Repoured
    Curing
    Maturing maybe
    Shedding bits
    Like lint
    Burnt off
    By life
    And heat.
