Monster
I have looked
Into the face
Of a real-life
Monster
He came into view
When I could
Stare
No longer
I tried to catch him
Flinch,
But when he cringed
I ponderedβ¦
I have looked
Into the face
Of a real-life
Monster
.
Inspired by all the times I stared at myself in the mirror as a kid...and all the times I've avoided "looking in the mirror" as an adult.
"We have seen the enemy, and he is us"
