The bathroom in my parent's house
Used to have a mirrored door on
The shower, and when I looked
Into the mirror above the sink,
I could see myself infinitely
Until my eyes could no longer
Follow the shrinking image. But
Now there is only smudged
Glass, streaked by water that
I did not clean off, and when
I look in the mirror, all
I see behind me is the shower,
Reminding me that I ought to
Stop musing on the subject of
Mirrors, their roles in film,
Literature, psychoanalysis of dreams,
Etc., and just get in the stupid
Shower.
