As the Mirror Photographs Eyes

As the mirror photographs eyes, 
Tongues running laps read glazed signs,
Broken phone calls your label
Talking fire cuts fixed cable,
Voices piling in rooms behind. 

Snapshotting darkness as I dine,
Mailing timepiece's vessel skies,
Painkillers rocking the cradle, 
As the mirror photographs eyes. 

The brain's carcass sees the sun rise
Rotating roads, token trails sigh, 
Step on streets in staples, 
The deck of cards on the table 
Covers stained face, breaking disguise 
As the mirror photographs eyes
