Notice of absence from arqios
an absence of Presence conjures Absence…
an absence of Presence conjures Absence…
does breaking mirrors
really alter my features?

A splendid metaphor that has many levels the literal, the meta and the meta meta. Deep in its philisophical thought also captured in brevity of poetic speech. This one for the combination of all deserves a Fave
Like those mirrors (Droste effect) reflecting each other into infinity! You got it Soren 👍🏻🕊 thanks for your support and company. 🙏🏻🙂
Short, Precise and it certainly makes you think, enjoyed the read
Thank you most kindly 🙏🏻🕊️

You are welcome, my friend!
Good write A.
Thanks O 👍🏻🙏🏻🕊️
Brevity with many levels arqios. For such a short piece, there is much to contemplate here. Shattered mirrors can make interesting poetry.
Haha 😃indeed, Cassie 👍🏻 thank you 🙏🏻🕊️
Powerful work.
Thanks TWC 👍🏻🕊️
You just see more than just one of the person you are arqios.
Andy
Yes! You’ve seen it before Andy, and so have I👍🏻🙏🏻🕊️
Looks splendid to me and in so many ways and no matter how I look at it .. Neville
Good one N👍🏻🙏🏻🕊️
now that's a tricky question although the answer, i feel is that cracked mirrors can also reflect properly from the right sides that are not shattered - and if they don's mirrors may lie, but the truth is there inspite of it
“In spite of it” now that is a very powerful phrase in this context! Thanks safina 🙏🏻🕊you are much appreciated 🙏🏻🕊
