Chameleon

With me you love to romance
with her you take a chance
mistress or missus
which one am I
questioning your dangerous dance

Will you go or will you stay
easily led astray
a fool on love
torn in half
hearts broken day after day

When I‚Äôm sad color me blue
If I‚Äôm glad paint me too
orange-kissed sunshine
watermelon brightness
emotional mix-ups taint my hue

Myla Jones‚Äì2002

I remember seeing a chameleon every time I glanced at my reflection, Myla.

I remember seeing a different shade
in every mirror-gaze on the same day
Different world today
Different girl today
Colder heart today
Roles and parts I play

All attitudes, personalities, potentialities
are vivid
Conformed to your current fantasy
and how you wanted me
to live it

Cried on prints
while in the darkroom
Beneath my scales
where my heart looms
past the ruins of my true self
where no one else dare walk to

Every heartbreak erased who I am
Empty man as my scales colors ran Loins or love, I always had to choose
So my lizard ooze slid both in hand

Now I seek atonement for the hearts and minds
Precious moments that I left behind
It seems fitting
that I'm lonesome
and my ways have left me colorblind

Dedicated to Maria Mootoo

Thank you The Flow
