Mirror on the Wall


Hanging on the wall

So plain and boring in the hall

Take you down and turn you over

And with  sketch that's just one day older

Etch it in

And once finished with the fin

Cover you in emrald greens, light blues, and a touch of black

Then once you're dry put you back

When people stop to check their face

A mermaid shall their vision embrace
