I caught a passing glimpse of
myself
passing the mirror on the way out of the
bathroom
and
realized
this
wasn’t me
how God poured me
into
this strange
½ black ½ Germanic body
with a bald
brown head
and
brow like a shelf of granite
over
uncertain eyes.
I realized for a profound moment
that this face I see
is no more
me
than the
car I get into
in
the morning.
