Reconstruction

I claim to be you
but only as I see you
I cannot get in
shape-shifting crevices
of your unique mindset

I claim to be God
rewrite your destiny
which you may not want
I love to project myself
as one living in your skin

I claim empathy
a much-maligned concept
and find a place
to dump my rejected self
in saleable content
