Don't shade the mirror. There's a face smashed in the wall. bereft of joy, gloom.

Thought provoking write Lasaad, this one evokes all kinds of consequences, but I think you know that already, I think you purposely leave the interpretation to the reader on this one, fantastic senryu, cheers David

Indeed, David, this senryu is about the many facets of life. We face joy and sorrow, health and sickness, and the line goes on. Thanks for your precious comment, my good friend
