Challenge of the Week CIX
Was that a Question? Begin your entry with a question. Perhaps it's one you know the answer to, and we too will know by the end of our reading. Perhaps it's something you barely fathom an answer for, and will ponder via the pen. You can write anything you want, so long as it begins with a question. Fiction of non-fiction, poetry or Prose.

For My Ignorant Individuality

Who am I for myself?

Am I a rusty nail lyng in a forgotten corner;

Am I a questionable counselor only brought to life by the need of comfort;

Am I a lazy maid whom only works to prove she works;

Am I a chipped support beam only brought into fruition by the presence of others?

Who am I for me?

Only me.

Am I a dim candle only lit when there is someone in need of light?

Am I an observer only relevant when others are to be seen?

Who sees me?

Who is my observer?

No sight to motivate me but my own

I ignite myself when left unlit

I cleanse myself when left alone

I observe myself in the omniscient to feel the warmth that is to be seen,

To be known.

Is that enough?

Definitely not.

Am I selfish for such thoughts?

Probably yes.

But how else am I to stay hidden and free?
