Fitting Room

Who I think I am And who I be, Are one and the same While you're looking at me. Do you mind? I would like to change. 2018.08.25

I love this so much! Terrific analogy, as people seem to want us to remain what we are (or seem to be) for their own comfort, despite our need for growth and... change. ;) Fun poem- but deep at the same time.

Came back to try this one on again... This time, in a fit of complete regression, or maybe progression---I dunno---I am reminded of what the stoplight said to the motorist: "Don't look. I'm changing." (Ugh! eh?) :) gw

Nooo look look I'm changing! I'm in the mess I'm in because I wasn't looking for the change. Too absorbed by Jwalkers. Blam! 23yrs later (funny I was 23) realizing my brain is in shambles from that ~one~moment~of~distraction. Progression or regression??? (ugh!) <3 mo

I love this Maureen. Penned with your unique sass and flair! I would have to respond, "I don't mind, go ahead!" (I guess I'm a little more hound dog than gentleman!)
