The Mirrored Image

Shaunmatthewcpoetry

 

Who thought to invent the mirror?
Just to see ourselves clearer
Reflections can be seen in the water
To some looking at themselves is pure torture
Always have to be perfect
Taking that IG pic and seeing it reflect
What about just being happy with your intellect?
Those clothes you wear so dirty
You should go to the morale launderette
What happened to self respect?
Is the end coming?
Nearly, not yet
Every newspaper headline
Reads like a threat
Just ignore them like me
80 percent bullshit I bet

    We can see and hear IG now but it still hasn't got "smellavision" but who knows what's up those techy sleeves. And at times it seems higher than 80% cosmos threatening headlines blaring.

    It's not me in the mirror. It's back to front, e.g. if we had our left eyebrow missing, in the mirror it would show our right eyebrow missing!
    If you get what I'm waffling on about? Not that I seen many one-eyebrowed people about. lol.
