Click hereI am
a candid mirror
seamless, askew,
slightly altered,
familiar view.
I make you think
you sense nexus,
perfect match,
pegs and holes,
a gemini union.
But no,
there is
no uplink,
not a twin
connection
only me;
your customised
reflection.

LeBrozabout 17 years agoMirrors, like people, are not always what they appear. Witness the car mirror on the far side from the driver, with its distorted view. A truthful mirror some will decry for presenting what we'd rather not see.

thenryabout 20 years agoI disagree. My difficulty was not with the abandonment of a rhyme scheme but with the change in formatting to shorter lines. It could be argued that this is to force a disconnect upon the reader, but, paradoxically, for short lines to work there must be flow between them.
