Wednesday, April 27 2022: Jeanne Marie Spicuzza's poem "The Mirror"

 The Mirror


The mirror

polishes itself

against itself

and discovers itself.


The mirror

polishes itself

against another

and learns desire.


The mirror

polishes another

and finds love.

But only the mirror


who forgets itself

and reflects

another

reaches union.
