Two Self-Portraits And Several Details Poem by Raj Arumugam

We see the times
and one's many faces
We see the moment
the emotions and mind changes;
the details puzzle oneself
and one's eyes dazzle
even one's own mind


It's a long way we've come
through earliest memory to this age;
we've caught our own images
in mirrors and glasses we pass by


The face one knows,
and one's own thoughts fair and foul
though, even at the end,
one does not know what
one's feet will gather
where one will lie at dusk
