Mirror Me.
Studying the face’s familiar eyes
Compelled to ask, “Who are you?”
In a cant voiced riposte he said
“Wealthy and destitute”,
“I am impartial and prejudiced”,
“Compassionate and derisive”,
“I am modest and narcissistic”,
“Munificent and niggardly”,
“I am astute and imprudent”,
“Dignified and indecorous”,
“Each piece of this puzzle is me”,
“And I am the puzzle in entirety”
My mirrored face then audaciously asked,
“Now tell me…who are you?”
