What Is Me Poem by Wensislaus Mbirimi

Is my being black me?
Is my bone, skin and flesh me
Is my heart me?
Or is my soul me
What is me

Is being able bodied me
Is being fine limbed and handsome me
Wouldn't me be me
If me was a crippled me

Is being rich me
Would me be me
If me was just a poor me
Is me the clothes worn by me
Is me the company and society kept by me
What is me

Would me remain me
If me was living elsewhere all by me
Is me still me
If me was not an educated me
Would me still remain me
If me was not married to the woman married to me
Would I still be me

Is me me because of who gave birth to me
Would me not be me if someone else had born me
What is me
If me is me
When is me not me

God created me
Satan tempts me
God lets Satan tempt me
Would me still be me
If Satan tempted me
If me fail Satan what is it to me
Would me become more of me

Is my name me
Is me me because of the nationality of me
Would me be me
If me had another name for me
Who would be me if me was not me

If me was not happy with me
Could me change me
If yes would the new me be me
Would the old me still be me
What then would be me

What then is me
Does me know me
If me does not know me
How then can me explain me to me
Me need to know from me
What is me
