My Old Ghost.

Goldfinch60



Into the mirror I look

And he is there again,

The ghost looks back.

As every time I look in the mirror

That crazy old man of a ghost

Stands in front of me

So I can never see my reflection.

    Good write Gold. KP can't see herself in the mirror - she's a vampire. lol.

    I love the implications of this write Andy. How many of us don't recognize ourselves or our actions. I remember many years ago being video taped and latter watching it being embarrassed by how my actions with other came across. A mirror the most unforgiving of critiques. Lovely write Andy a fave

          You can afford to ignore the inevitable when your joy in what you have is indisputable, Andy. Ignore the apparition in the glass.

            I really like this! It made me smile for one, but on the other hand it's interesting how much we can change to the point we don't recognize ourselves.
