In the mirror

By Virgils Vigil

Touch your finger to the mirror,
What's not there becomes clearer.
Touch one finger to the mirror,
What appears are your fears.

  • A former member wrote: Wow .. that really hit me in a sore spot. This is fantastic. Pinpointing your fears only to find them in yourself.. Only to realise you are the fear and there is no escape. I loved it. Favourite! Wow.. "What's no there, becomes clearer" mm, that line was beautifully painful. AWESOME!

  • A former member wrote: this one captured my sight..... could have been the mirroring ... what's not there, the fear that becomes clear. funny how we tend to fear what is not there, usually, maybe. interesting repetition with a difference, thanks for sharing.
