M Faces A Crisis Poem by Raj Arumugam

1
M has an existential crisis
a religious point
of inward movement
for it's been wondering
who it is:
"Who M I? "

(and I protests often,
"Don't drag me in! ")


2
Neighbors R and S
have offered answers:
R with its religion;
and S with its spirituality

P has offered Psychology
and A has offered
Anthropology
and Archaeology


3
But M is not satisfied
for its true nature is in its
perpetual question:
"Who M I? "

(And poor I protests
often:
"For goodness sake - don't drag me in! ")
