Inspired by ​​Ernst Ludwig Kirchner’s Double Self-Portrait

The self is twofold I say!
Yes, it is a binary bound,
perpetually twain,
and forever betwixt-

No, I disagree!
The self is an impermanence of course,
a free-flowing continuance,
a fluid spectrum of intersecting superimpositions-

You fool!
How ridiculous it is,
to live in this world,
and to be,
both from and of it,
yet never seek to understand,
neither it nor yourself.

No, it is you who is absurd!
The reality of this world,
isn’t my judge,
how can it define,
the one who determines all-

You know nothing-
No, I know everything!

Do you understand me?
