little pieces of poetry #7

I change my shape
And form my mind
I am the chameleon
Of all that you know

If I need to find anger
I change to become sharp
Edges aplenty
Straight lines to chart

If you try to blunt my edges
I blunt them for you
I regain my curves
And let words slip away

***


Now I see
My ever-changing ways
I am returning to my former shape.
Edges and curves
Both in place.

I am humbled
By the beauty
Of being in my own shape…
And that feels so much better
Than my former transformations
Ever could.
