I am who I am

‘Nough said.

I am a clown and I am a jugglerI am a thief and I am a smuggler

I am a husband and I am a fatherA dad to my daughters, my wife’s lover

I am a soldier and I am a farmerA seeker of fortune and a snake charmer

I am Cassandra, I tell what’s to comeThe end of the world is just one outcome

I am Sisyphus, and I roll my boulderI am Atlas, the world’s on my shoulders

From the dust I came and when it’s my turnTo the same dust I shall return
