a poem reprinted from Athena Captain's Log... by the way, you might only get this if you know a little Buddhism ;)
I vs. Me
by Wren Rogers
There once was an I that I thought was me.
I looked for her to tell me who I might be.
She smiled to say, don't look at it that way.
I didn't exist before you thought of me.
Change your mind's eye and I will die.
And a new you steps out of the cue.
Don't embrace a mind fixed in space.
Don't grasp I, not even a trace.
Set me free, the I of yesterday I erase.

Love this poem.
There was once a you
That had a shoe
In fact had two shoes.
But life is short
And life is sweet
Even with bare feet.
