Who Am I? – Sculpted

                             Who am I?

          On what level?             When I look in the mirror

      What do I see?                        Who looks back at me?

   Can I see with closed eyes?                           Do I scream? 

      When I look in the mirror              Is it me that I see?

          Or just a figment,                    my imagination

                             When I see me

Who am I                                                      Who am I
On what level                                When I look in the mirror
What do I see                                     Who looks back at me
Can I see with closed eyes                                 Do I scream
When I look in the mirror                          Is it me that I see
Or just a figment                                       My imagination
When I see me                                            When I see me

This is from a dVerse prompt. The prompt: Create a sculpture (or bust) of yourself. Use any materials – real or imagined – using the guidelines within Victoria’s 2012 prompt. As part of Victoria’s 2012 prompt there was this option: Create a poem that is multi-dimensional, that is, one that can be read on more than one level.

I chose to use form as a way to create my sculpture and to also add the multi-dimensional and multi-layer aspect in the different ways to read the poem. I hope you enjoy! :^)

I realized after posting it that the shape not be the same depending on what screen you’re looking at the poem so it can change completely depending if you’re looking at a phone or desktop or a smaller or bigger screen. So I made it an image. That is what the original was meant to be. However the bottom is sort of fun changing poem that is rather interesting so I’m keeping it to. I’ll just add something artsy like “the top is how I see the sculpture whereas the bottom represents the art in the audience’s eye and how our vision of ourselves differs from how the world sees our art.” (It’s all just a happy accident. lol)
