To Be

I am becoming—
    Befuddled,
    Bemused,
    Bemoaned,
    Beleaguered,
    Bewitched,
    Bedeviled,
    Begotten.

I am between question and answers,
    Between actions and words,
        Between beginnings and ends.

I am becoming my worst enemy,
    Or so the mirror claims.

So I'll drape the mirror with a black veil,
    And trap the ghosts and demons beneath,
    Then let it fall to the floor
        To become the pieces of nevermore.
