who is sitting?
who is painting?
who is writing?
who is breathing?

the answer will depend on who is asking

self asking will create a response
from its handy archive of memories
I asking (non-personal ‘I’) will simply recognize I

who or what this-here-now is,
is created in the brain of the perceiver

I am not,
but Life lives I
and knows I(t)-self through the Awareness of all ‘I’s
