The Illusion of Poetry

Kerry O'Connor

I am an optical illusion.
This is me, witch of the first star.

This star of the first illusion,
an optical witch is me. I am.

I am an illusion of the first star.
Optical witch, this is me.

An optical illusion, I am this witch:
star of the first is me.

This optical star is an illusion
of the first witch. Am I me?

I am the first star. This witch
of an optical illusion is me.



Written for Kim's amazing challenge: The Uncertainty of the Poet.
