What do you see when you look in a mirror?
Well, I know you dont see me.
If only we could all be so lucky;
for when my eyes fall upon that glass--
in full fledged vanity--
the only wish I have is for my mirrored elimination.

So why do I stare into the eyes I've known for so long?
There is no more knowledge to be gained on my own.
Stop looking
Avoid Narcissus
Learn from Dante
Evade mirroring landscapes.

There has only been one time that I could stare
and learn from that spectral pair--  
not those brown ringlets of life,
but the world after-- in which  I died in strife.
My soul was bare and my fate was there,
but with clouded mind I can't remember if I truly cared.
