Reflections of Me
An image portrayed by my mirror,
not projecting the correct colour,
negatives disregarding this persons
experience, reflecting
inevitable cold reality of
demise,
no more pastels or amber reds,
just blurred silver grey,
past events reflected in wrinkles,
baggage of life under sad eyes,
desensitised lips that once gave pleasure,
WHO is this person looking back at me.
08/01/1956.
