refraction

by Brock Daniels - Not entered

inside the mirrors' reflection
the light where we were
marvelling at the wonderment
which is now so far
and the mailman weilds his poison
drops it in my vision
for just no reason

inside the mirrors' reflection
a paradox of time
the darkest invention of itself
a missionary for the sun
the offspring which does not shine
the reverance which wasn't mine

inside the mirrors' reflection
the multiples of existence
a copied world for the beloved
and the belittled
a portrait of hate
a geometrical geography
derived from fate

to make of it what I want again and again
a figment of reality which I cannot bend

Reason for writing:

    I awoke this morning and looked into the mirror of mirrors 
and wrote of the world within
