what we are.

for Eileen Myles

its all about appearances.

well yes and no.

we are we: as a whole.

we are what we say, what we do, what we think

and how we do all of that.

is it what we are a matter of mode?

well yes and no.

we sound, move and look as we can,

but there is some aura about it,

and that is us: we can make it bright.

and that is all what we are:

light.
