Tell Me












Tell Me

Turned away, my lover murmured,

I actually think that others often see us
more clearly than we see ourselves.

Into her neck I agreed.

How can any of us do otherwise?


A story is a re-telling, every word a reflection

of something other. Little good it did Narcissus
to stare and stare. And stare.


My lifetime, I wonder, and have wondered

how it shall end. Holding I am lovely!

to a mirror.

Better that someone else should see this.

And tell me.
