Wanna-Be
I am so different
than I thought myself
and exactly the same
as when I first thought myself.
My name for myself
is Observer Who Sometimes Acts
and Sometimes Refrains from Acting
but Mostly Waits Too Long.
Despite my second-best efforts, there are so many
things about me that strike me as wrong.
I'm an approximation of myself.
A low-fidelity version. Diluted.
A wanna-be me,
nodding to the teasing pleas of inconsistency.
