Metamorphosis

They say nothing will ever be as it was.

The world has changed irrevocably.

From here on out, all bets are off,

We’ve entered new territory.

But if that’s the case, oh boy

have I got something for you.

Now I get to be

A new version of me, too.

I get to sit here day by day

without all that noise

and pick out all the things I’ll say

with my all-new, 100% me-voice.

And damned if you don’t get to see

Exactly the version of me I want to be.
