You are Me in the Mirror

Meanwhile we attend to details like monks
and argue for lost moments. I steal glances
of the passing beauties but you just ask
them for cigarettes. I am will, the man says,
but you are addiction running me over.
I sit by lovely knowing I can kiss her
and blame you for my hesitation phases--
thinking and fidgeting a gin-empty flask.
All I could say comes down to fifteen paces.
Straighten up, boy, put down the rubber mask.

Comments:
Inner dialogue is weird and creepy.
We need more poetry in our lives.

The first two lines are my favorites.
 
i like the way the rhymes happen. i love "all i could say comes down to fifteen paces" -- so constantly true. and the rubber mask... strange.
