Some journeys encounter more struggles, more than the mirror's broken pieces. My humble take. Cheers David...ab

For sure that is another possibility Anselmo, but I think my mindset when writing was, the one who smashed the mirror was defective in their own eyes, even before they smashed it, giving the impression that we now have more defects than makes up the whole image, phew! Hope that clears up my mess, Cheers David

So true David, monoku's convey a lot in a few words. Tom

They do indeed Tom, the more orthodox poetry will always take centre stage, and rightly so, the monoku is expedient, but can still pack a powerful punch, if landed correctly, cheers David
