A piece

Gazing upon
A broken mirror
Tells a truth
That we are fragmented
And it is not
The mirror
We fear to break

Conflagratulations.

Towering infernos.
The flames lick,
He moistens his lips in the dry, desert air.

A flicker,
He is drawn to a spot
Within flame.
Beyond red, through yellow.
A speck of black, and inside: blue.

Mesmerised,
He wipes the sweat from his brow.
The back of his hand.

The room recedes.
Clammy, sticky; growing ice cold as the breeze rakes across him.
He is aware...
Everyone is watching him.

So he blows them out.
All 39.

A broken mirror is probably truer than an intact one.
