Monologue

Maybe you will think that I am insane but I am not.
You can say whatever you want to say about me but I do not care.
You can think whatever you want to think about me but it will not matter.
I am no copycat.
I am my 'own' man.
I do not have to convince you that I am the be(a)st.
For I know that I am.
I do not believe in anything.
I am what I am.
I am the master of my fate and destiny.
How many times do I have to dare you people--
Come and get me?
Hehehehehehehehe...
Now, If I happen to cross your path one day.
Well, don't blame me if you get lucky.
For sure you will end up just like the rest- Dead.
I am as ordinary as you people are.
I am young and happy and having the time of my life.
I do what I do best and very good at it.
There is nothing wrong with me.
I neither smell burning rubbers nor hear voices.
The DSM- IV R Classification in Psychiatry does not fit me.
I am as healthy as can anyone be.
My shrink will better bet her life on
Because she is next on my list...
Now let him who has understanding reckon the number of the beast...

--For it is a human number...
It's number is ....

Who Am I?

I look into the mirror I couldn't help but notice the changes.
Who are you?
I am the Man.
A Goodfella.
No, I am Iago.
Whatever happened to the sweet and innocent one that once upon a time inhabits this body? Don't ask me for I don't know the answer.
Don't know. Ask somebody else. Ask the Dude on the streets.
Now I must admit that I am not the same person I used to be.
My life has been a rollercoaster ride through a kaleidoscope world since that fateful day in October eons ago when I finally decided to live out my dreams.
One day I am Dr. Jekyll. The next day I'm Mr. Hyde.
For a time I am the Man with the Iron Mask!
I am Dr. Scrooge. I am a creature from the dark abyss!
I dare you to ask my good friend Odin.
Am I your Prince Charming? Sir Galahad? Frankenstein!?
No, I am your typical boy next door.
Am I the Anti-Christ??
A Chameleon under the sun?

I am the man without a face.
I am the Menace!
The man from Ermita.
The Scourge of Manila.
I am the Tin Man.
I am the Iceman.
The man on the moon.
The fool on the hill.
The angel of death!
And NO one can escape my wrath!
I am an angel.
I am evil.
I am Lucifer, Nosferatu, Beelzebub rolled into one.
But
I come in peace.
And you can call me John.
I am the Son of Man!

So, who's the man in the mirror?

Cogito ergo sum. I think therefore I am.
