If I'M Not A---Then What Am I
I've been pondering who am I,
it's really got the wheels turning.
I do wonder who is this guy,
what flame in my soul is burning?
Is biking my identity,
or maybe that I'm a poet.
Inside of me an entity,
how can I actually know it?
And what about my Johnny past,
have each of those moments made him?
Am I a pile of amassed,
moments like lyrics in a hymn?
Beginning to think that I am,
not my past life or what I did.
That kind of fate is just a scam,
I'm not my ego or my id!
To be or not to be I ask,
as I see from behind my mask!
