glowing in the mirror

i have been king
so many times
and dubbed a hundred knights
delighted at their name

and requited many lovers
loves although
none of them were
ever just the same

i have been a hoary queen
with beard
and breast
and tears

and sold the farmsteads
underneath the serfs
whose lives
knew only fear

That is me,
as I am
cold as winter rain

This is me,
so simple
so simple
and so plain.
