Mirror Depths


Gaze into framed-frosted-frozen abyss There deathdark deeps and hidden crags Await all who fall in. Look! There is a self like yourself Gazing back from the gulf Mysterious, leerious, ghosteous An imagined image fairy-flitting in and out. It is more than a self like yourself, A self of yourself you see Staring at you from desolate darkness Like a dream of demon From the secret depths of your soul – Is this just a mirror?
