Some Say
Some say
I am
the product
of who I was
before I was.
Some say
I am
the result
of a million
little steps,
of all the days
along the way
since then.
Some say
I have
untapped
potential
to be a force
for greater good
or unspeakable evil,
to walk with gods
or be
the devil incarnate,
just waiting
to be unleashed
upon an unsuspecting world.
Come,
have a glass of wine,
enjoy the moment,
set that heaviness aside,
lay with me,
and roll the dice.
And if you
do not like
snake eyes,
you can roll,
and roll again
without concern
for who she might have been.
