My Mirrors

In the mirrors
                   are farrowing
                   the convenient truths
                   the conniving lies ...
                   Mirrors steal
                  souls and return
                  ghosts,
                  steal pure saps
                  and return smoke ...
                  Mirrors are evil
                  and selfish ... restrain
                 the beauty of others and maintain
                  in seclusion ...
                 Show ugliness and activate
                 disbeliefs ...
                 Mirrors are metaphorical,
                 are puzzles ...
                 They shatter truths,
                 spread lies ... no
                 mirror realities but
                assumptions ...
                Mirrors are illusionists,
                Wizards magicians,
                cultivate a living in cheering
                noses and distorting images ...!
               Which mirror do you say, my mirror ...!?
