Dip-Tick-Tock

way back when
waiting up all night for the sunrise
too cold to go out on the roof just yet.
he told me about an artist
she had two personalities
maybe clinically now, but not originally.
she specialized in self portraits
portraits of her other self.
she held two apartments
one for herself one for her alter ego
one day when she got home
she got mad at herself for buying a new toaster oven.
i never did meet her
or her.
i wish i could remember her names.
