Sometimes
Sometimes I blame fate
Sometimes I flail God
Sometimes I rail genes
Sometimes I blame birth
Sometimes witches and wizards
Sometimes I see race
Sometimes yesterday desired.
Sometimes I crave tomorrow
Sometimes I know nothing
Sometimes I am vain
Sometimes I am a sycophant
Sometimes I am a lie
Sometimes I trust like a child
Sometimes I am fantasy
Sometimes I miss home
Sometimes I ditch faith
Sometimes I say, why me?
Sometimes I am my root--
My weepy father
his non-conformities.
Sometimes I do not know
Who I am.
