Rob Schackne #473 - Another Day In Shanghai

Another Day In Shanghai

Prosopagnosia
for fucksake please
call it by its name
taking endless selfies
until a) you see the face
you had before you were born
or b) you recognise yourself
from a few days before

the knowing and confused
the smile and the scowl
cutie pie and hideous
sure it's who you are
or c) just save it till later
you'll see someone
exactly like you

  1. Rob, I don't know if this is the 'right' response but the tone of this poem and the option c) at the end really did make me laugh out loud. Thanks:))
