Me and Me
Me and Me
Thoughts on the cloning of a human being
There’s a me and a clone of me and if we meet,
Then how do we know which me is me and which
The other; and if I think I am me then am
I the other me, or is he someone else?
Me and me: just imagine if there was a you and you;
And if you and me and clone of me and clone of you
All met at once, would we (collectively us) sort ourselves
Into you-s and me-s that matched?
And, just suppose, the you and me that I think is
Me and you, turns out to be me and clone of you;
Would we know and would we care, or can we
Carry on just like you and me?
AND, and just suppose, through devices strange and
Technical, I could add an X and drop a Y and make
Of me a she, then (I’m sure it’s legal) if I mate with me
(OK – my clone), would I then give birth to me?
