Now that is a portrait, Sally, the Picasso would appreciate. Fantastic poem.

my face. no longer recognisable. 
each feature dislocated 
at an oddly twisted angle. undulated 
by the slowly self-adjusting pool. 
the daily mask of pretence 
gone
reflecting back 
my unconsidered failures ˈ
and other drifts of simultaneous 
unhappiness 
i have persistently 
resisted for — 
some time.
So This is it [is it]
