II. am i I
How do I know
That what the looking-glass shows
Is truly me?
How sure can I be
That that which I see
Is actually me?
What if, perchance
Whenever I glance
Into that plane
I know not my name?
What if perceptions
Are really snoitpeced
And every sesnation
Is just a co
nstr
uction?

I?
III. I am i
I is my mind
Whose product you find
The thing that this writes
As truly mine I
And by thinking i write
Into existence my I
Like a blank sheet
That becomes so by ink
Upon itself written.
