No contest poem. I have decided to avoid contests until I find some poetic vibes.
Mirror on the wall,
what do you reflect,
A simple image, trying to look pretty,
Or a self-righteous image,
or a deception of the soul.
In the simple image,
Beauty adores itself in front of a mirror,
Ugliness feels self-content,
The transient reality seems to come alive,
Dreams can't even find their shadows.
In The self-righteous image,
Ego and superiority lurk everywhere,
Intolerant to the opinions and behavior of others,
Thinks simple images are transient misconceptions.
In between simple and selfish images,
The soul finds a deception of heart and mind,
Self-righteous image is like a fading star in the daytime,
The soul sees the image as in a parallel mirror,
Where one becomes infinity.
