mirrors

the problem with mirrors
is not 
necessarily 
their reflection 
reflection can be managed 

with steam
avert gaze
with streaks
suck in stomach
with lights
stand on toes

the problem with mirrors
tilt face downward
is not
suck in cheeks
they are everywhere
clench butt
or they are unforgiving
widen eyes
or they are bright
pucker lips
or dim
shoulders back

the problem with mirrors
is they are greedy
and by the time you figure that out
there’s nothing left of you
to reflect
