Soul Confusion

why can't I just have my shadow with me
a Sancho Panza that will hold my lance?

my soul seems like a spy
and is always nervous about potential judgements
concerning my behavior

there is relentless bickering between the two of us
and I am presently seeking a replacement
perhaps at the New York Yankee games
where they listen to Kate Smith, wear pinstripes and face the flag

or turn to hawg jaw and collored greens,
black eye peas and James Brown

I must avoid the Canadian Celine Dione, whatever I do.

Author notes
