FIMO
I made an impression of myself in clay tonight,
a self-portrait of sorts.
My maleable alter ego.
I wish it was so easy to shape-shift,
to make myself into something I am not.
Raven haired
green eyes instead of blue
confident
patient
courageous
enchanting.
It’s often difficult not to catalog my faults
my daily blunders
and imperfections.
The alien was my best attempt
at disclosing my true self--
a sometimes imposter--
a foreigner in my own body.
