{...reflection...}

{...reflection...}

A Poem by Christopher Michael Smith

I saw my self today.
I was not dressed in typical flesh of material and biology.
Today,
I was not me.
I was my own reflection,
Mirrored in all things...

I was you, I was he.
I was the smallest of critters crawling upon the sleeve.
I was above and below,
Here and there.
I was the light of the stars,
Fully aware.
I was a rebellious teen,
Emotions galore.
I was the sparkle that could sparkle no more.
I was youthful flesh,
& ageless death.
I was the fabric that could not get wet.
I was the star that pulsed with a faint twinkle.
I was inside the crevice of the world's deepest wrinkle.
I was chewed up gum that stuck to the shoe in the street.
I was light and dark.
I was duality.
I was a representation of my higher self.
I was the creator of my reality.
I was a holographic dimension of this daily, waking dream.
I was enlightened to higher visions and complete understanding.
I was the murderer and the saint.
I was the elements of the periodical table taught in chemistry.

I am you,
&
I am me.

I am no longer lost in this world.
I found me in everything....
