SELF PORTRAIT

I’m serious, funny, fun and no fun.
Witty, a bore, bright as the sun.
I’m guilty, honest, insecure.
I use my looks, my appeal,
My allure.
I’m brazen, abrasive, sensitive, shy.
Afraid to accept, inclined to deny.
I’m loose, ridged, trapped, free.
I’m seeing the wholeness that lies
Within me.
