Days*



There are mirrors too often
in which I see
patterns that I did not cut
but must abide

knowing well
what happens next
is green is yellow is
fading to black

Could I attempt
my own rebirth
at this late date
or would I merely

layer
fresh bark
to a hollowing trunk
collapsing into itself

not in a questioning mood, are we now?  

I'm just glad your questioning brings about such great poetry as this. I do like this alot. Especially that first image of the mirror showing the (ahh how did you phrase it) patterns you didn't cut... something liek that.. really good.
