Kim Rodrigues Poet Diminished Hexaverse

Notes About The Poem

Craig Cornish Contest

A Wilderness of Mirrors

Apparitions behind every mottled rock.
Shaded countenance surreptitious like shadows.
Fractured slivers and fragments boast -
On wall, ceiling and floor.
Splattered drop cloth - reflective dread.

Fun house of Zeus,
The zigs and zags -
Thundering fakes, illuminated lies.
She claws her face.

Crags of wilderness.
Deep etched drama.
Whirlwind’s not glue.

One face.
One mirror.

Truth
