Materials for a Life

This glass of water in my hand:
Still. So still.
No. Pandemonium.
Armageddon of atoms.

Between two mirrors,
I watch the reflections
Recede into infinity,
Each image a Russian doll
Of riddles.

I is I,
The only thing that matters,
The myself itself,
Me me me.
Symbol of symbols,
Figure-of-eight.

Words, associations, episodes.
God and goblin,
I believe and disbelieve,
Sovereign-stupid.
