The Mirror's Command
this morning the mirror showed me
my very own face
in the shape of a memory
in another time and place
suddenly the mirror filled
with a strange colored haze
hiding what was revealed
leaving me in a daze
I shook my head
must be hallucinating
should go back to bed
but this is just too fascinating
I never dropped acid
so this can't be a trip
the vision was so vivid
so I decided to dip
deep into my mind
for an explanation
an old dream I did find
when I gave into temptation
in the midst of the haze
the word follow did appear
I snapped out of my daze
and my path was clear
