In the Mirror

Look deep in the mirror Do you see color? What do you see? Can you see the sins of the humanity, And the hypocrisy creeping at the doorsteps? Blinded by the murky and muddy Glaucoma of jealousy, You can neither see the footsteps Of your consciousness, Nor the smears of your unconsciousness. Look deep, way beyond the third heaven. Tell the world candidly about your exploration And your obvious observation. Look deep, dig beyond the grimaces of the pen. Come clean and you shall see that no one is perfect. There is an ever-present secret skeleton in the closet. You simply have to cross the deck, Take a few steps beyond and let The reality blows whistle and ring bells. Never forget to look beyond the dirt under your nails. Copyright© December 12,2011, Hébert Logerie, All Rights Reserved Hebert Logerie is the author of several poetry books.
