I am not a shadow
nor an invention
nor a character created
for a virtual life
to inhabit scenarios
of make-believe
role play
and pretend.
.
I am not a projection
a fantasy
a construction
of someone
I would like to be.
.
I am not just
an avatar
I am corporeal
of flesh and blood
a heart that pumps
a mind that thinks.
A hunger
that burns.
.
And if I should play
a game
in any way
in any context
it is always
for real.
