PANE IN THE GLASS PRODUCTIONS

I AM

I am -- a tiny speck of motion,
Invisible to the eye of the universe,
Like an atom to my vision,
A microscopic entity on the planet earth.

I am -- a mass of cells coagulated,
Flesh and bone, blood and guts, breathing matter,
Energized for purposes beyond comprehension --
Micro and macro worlds -- in semblance of life.

I am -- emotional soup in a sea of brains --
Good/bad, happy/sad, seeks perfection,
Controlled by past movements and unknown fears --
Empathy and serenity, added flavor.

I am -- advanced computer technology.
Programmed for creative thought,
Building, every building on yesterdays
To create better tomorrows.

I am -- a television screen play,
Masked character dressed in costume,
Portraying who you'd like me to be,
Instead of who I am.

I am -- complex, yet simple,
A unique being in a mass of humanity,
Searching for purpose and understanding,
At best as myself.
