I was inspired to write this after going to an acting camp where I was many characters.
Who am I?
The sun rose this morning
And I was a king.
The moon shone this night
And I was a beggar.
I am guardian of the peace
I am prince of the ocean
I am the queen of lust
Who am I?
No, there’s no enigma here,
No tricksy games
No fancy answers
No, sir, not I…
I am my own creation
Whatever character that may be
Without chains of conformity
To hold me still.
I may fly through the sunset
And swim with lobsters
And dance with fairies
And grow with the great trees.
I am my own creation
Whomsoever that may be.
