Jester

Behind my mirror the jester hides,
Although carved from wood and glass
He is cold in his ruthless world
I smile back at him unbeknown
He thinks I am taunting him
But I am smiling at myself
For that is a vision i see
My mirror is a puddle upon the road
He constantly looks up
I subconciously look down
