The Man In The Mirror

I look into a mirror and

I wonder who I see

If I am the one looking

Who’s looking back at me?

Been told it’s me I’m seeing

I’m sure that can’t be true

When I try to touch the glass

They’re trying to get through.

Normally do normal things

Like brush their teeth or shave

Often they’re not wearing pants

That’s no way to behave!

I wonder do they wonder

About the face they see

Just call it their reflection

Much saner then than me.

Nobody can understand

I’ve been sent for a “rest”

No mirror in my room now

That’s likely for the best.

Cheers,
