I Live in a Mirror House

 

I live in a mirror house crazy and cold

Chasing down reflections I can’t hold

I accompany myself in lure of the end

Conversing only to the images I send

Different at every turn’s configuration

A world of wonder and speculation

Every image offers a kind of suggestion

It’s a life of constant wonder and question

Oh, but what a maddening way to be

Questions without answers in all that I see

I liked this poem, Tim, as I often feel like I love in a mirror house. I liked the last few lines as I could resonate with it in a way,
"It’s a life of constant wonder and question
Oh, but what a maddening way to be
Questions without answers in all that I see."
Thank you for this.
