The Normal looking Duckling

In the mirror

The only thing I see

Is,

I'm not the same

But as I

Spill out of

The chrysalis,

Loose

In a puddle of embryotic fluid,

I'm not the man

I want to be.

I'm slowly picking away

The eggshell,

My first steps

As a normal Duckling

Into a silly old goose.
