SEE ME IN THE MIRROR

See me in the mirror,
see the guised torn smile that flickers

see me in your eyes
in your very look
see the narrowly bead mustache
that sidelined thwarted stand

See me in the mirror
the voice hailed through the vales of bravery
blue-black curls of aged wrinkles co-habit

See your heroic palms
see me in the depths of it
the ruffled necks that suffocated in them

see me
the reflections
marrying the walls of the mirror

See in the mirror
the pose of swiftness that walked my armored self
aloof places of riotous reign

see me in the mirror
see the raged veins,
the boiling,
red life
see

See the scars
the emblem of determined gun cries
see me
In you!
before the master photographer

See yesterday in the firm reflector
in yourself
in your eyes
in your stand
in the mean lagoons
that masticated humane conscience

See me in you in the mirror front
chanting war tunes silently
