I am.

Joseph Mark Carbonell 1994 (Oregon)



2012

I am the warrior reflexes quick almost psychic, body trained in endurance creating a temperance that makes the mind seem irrelevant, a world where instinct is relevant.

I am the poet mind sharp creating words lyrically pleasing as a harp. A mind where neurons fire creating metaphors that transcend the metaphysical bringing the mind to the brink being lyrically critical.

I am the runner on the track running lap after lap, trying not to gasp as I attempt to pass everyone in the class.

I am the conscious being of relevant society changing the way I see reality day by day, cause when in I look in the mirror I see perfection because I see my souls reflection.
