Mirror

Mirror Mirror on the wall, what is this I see?- Someone I don't know looking back at me. On my way to the restroom this is what I found Someone snuck upon me, didn't make a sound. Eyes like beads the sort to not be trusted Too close together I was totally disgusted!. Lips pierced together, as if they couldn't speak Made a sorted motion- made a little tweak How long had they been there I began to wonder With short ears, and a nose like thunder I tried to lose it by moving to my right But it did too, man! this could take all night Licking out my tongue I shifted to my left- Didn't say a thing for I figured it was deaf. Who could this enchanted creature be?- I really didn't care for it was really annoying me. Pointed with frustration Said I'm tired of you"! Know what's funny? They did too!! I need a restroom break "Will you please go away"? They looked, replied "Me too that's all you had to say"
