You are dressed in your fall camouflage
are wood ducking the season
Yes. Yes you are.
While it is easy to see the basic idea behind this poem. The true inspiration came from my cat.
This is my cat:
 |
| Awwwww... |
He likes to sit high up on bookshelves and stalk me. Sometimes he hides in boxes or drawers and jumps at me as I walk by.
He's a cat.
So I mashed hunting and my cat together with a creepy stalker vibe and some vague doppelgänger-ness.
high-hatting matching my gait
Also...doppelgängers are super creepy. Like really. Abraham Lincoln claimed to have a vision of one that Mary Todd Lincoln interpreted as him winning a second term but dying before the end of it. Other famous people reporting the phenomena:
Percy Bysshe Shelly - Percy and his wife Mary Shelly supposedly met his double.
John Donne - Saw his wife's double the night she miscarried.
Johann Wolfgang Goethe - Saw himself riding horseback.
George Tryon - His double walked through a party shortly after his ship sank in the Meditteranean.
Inspiration is a try at exploring my own work in a thoughtful way. A book report on me.
