The mirror is ignorant

Amy Michelle Mosier

The mirror is ignorant
Of what I know is the truth:
Youth repelling the elements -
A smooth face untouched by grief -

An expression revealing no thought
Whose round eyes of ocean blue
Can't focus in on a plot -
Can't see vandals for what they do

But this face is aware of things
From academia and abroad -
Challenged by touch and theory -
Although my peers might say not

And my opinions - they run deep -
Diverse in classifications -
My humility - held steady -
By the years of my burdens.
