Re-Invention

There’s many things to be in life and I’ve been just a few
but I think that it’s quite good for us to build ourselves anew.
I’d find it rather boring being the same me every day;
it really would diminish the new games I’d learn to play.
If I’m the same tomorrow as I was the day before
that’s someone I’ve already been; don’t want that anymore.
I’d rather re-invent myself; a nice shiny new me;
Then till the sculpture’s finished, I won’t know who I’ll be.
The art of re-invention is a skill we all should learn
so when our past’s behind us we can just let it burn.

About a foolhardy florilegium

Nullius addictus iurare in verba magistri, quo me cumque rapit tempestas, deferor hospes.
