Skull Man Stares at Me

Skull man stares at me from the mirror Instantly, I recognize my mistake This was a new life A chance to get things right This is why we are recycled and reborn right? Yet here I am, in the same rut as my last lifetime Making the same erratic, weird, strange choices Choices that keep me down Put me down Squashing me into mud, muck and mire Skull man makes no sound Yet I hear his voice Feel his disappointment Same again? Really? For skull man is me
