Your snapshots of me
That's my kitchen,
that's my cat,
that's my chair,
and those are my eyes
just before you walked towards me.
Can you make out
the sweep of doubt, the future
dangley and afraid; the
wonder of love mistrusted
leaping from kitchen, cat
to chair where I sit
unmoving, unchanging.

You know, this starts out like a country song...then it meanders into all those unsettling feelings when encountering someone you're attracted to.
these lines below are the actual focal point of the poem for me...I love the way you describe the future...it certainly is dangley and afraid for most of us. I love it!

Biography: "I'm not a moment - I'm a muse. I'm life itself - you're its reflection. But you're too blind to see the truth through ghostly rays of your perfection. I'm not a slave of destiny - I am above, I'm its creator. I've always been a mystery, And you're nothing more than haters".

Short but very nice.
The structure is rather interesting.
