Self


I am often of the opinion
that to read my own words
is the most appealing

The sound of my own
voice resonates with
the recurrence of infection

Try it if you will,
take a few moments,
write a few words,

Read them out loud,
praise yourself with a smile,
stood before a mirror

I am also of the opinion
that to read your chosen words
is to me often the most revealing
