Mirror talk


Not all mirrors work
like Dorian Grey’s portrait
he stayed young while picture aged
not all mirrors work the reverse either
growing younger
but heart is mirror
and so too mind and memory
they don’t forbid
unless we do
and in that mirror
you can age
or un-age
in blissful selectivity
meet people
you never knew could exist:
we are solitary creatures,
us humans,
they say,
but that’s a choice
for those who have heart
have mind
and memory.

  1. Very, very true. My inner mirror is blissfully selective and great fun- most of the time!
    Thanks for putting this into words for me.
