They say a man can have several faces
From several traces, of various influences,
That make his identity of relevance
To who he is, to who he aspires to be.
Although we all have different sides,
Assume different faces when in different places,
These sides end up entwined
Into one individual mind.
A unique entity
With endless possibility
Of creative capability
Such as these words of poetry, that surge within you and me
Making us who we be
Branches of the same tree
The definition of artistic identity.
