The Nature of Identity

[heslopian]

You can slide out the sleeve in a video case
and swap it with another one.
The case has no identity.
Give it a label and that's what it is.
A sitcom can become a slasher
or vice versa. I think about women
who use make up in layers,
and men who wear shirts with guitars on the front.

Sitting at my desk in gray pyjamas
this seems like a metaphor.
One I should write a poem about.
