Hardly a mirror
but a vision—a prompt
No vanity in it
nor projection: that
pop–popular assertion
pretending us helpless
but to vomit our faults
at each utterance
rather than reflect
not without merit
another condition
one that touches on shared
experience, knowledge
mindful observation
Thank you for visiting!
