Self-Portrait as Dust

Particles I am partial to.
Once they land are they a pile,
desperate for attention?
an eyesore responsible for a sudden stop in channel surfing?
They are their own boundaries, light and dark.
The hill or valley. A Rubin Vase
But is it rightfully so to call it an entity
or the byproduct of a bigger wheel? Like
Condensation on a soda can,
Do they add Personality?
Or are they to be Eradicated?
Erosion is beautiful but dust is the key.

I like the alliteration in the beginning. But I like how you can see its relation to dust, but it has a deeper meaning. It pruposes a lot of life questions.
