there are so many
mirrors

on the earth

they give us
questions to

ask ourselves and

when I face one
I ask myself

what is the human
thing to do

she is young
relatively

but we have
asked so much of her

she feels like
she is breaking

from all these demands

sometimes I laugh
when I think

too much or when
I see myself

in a mirror

and sometimes I don’t
