Fulcrum of Sunlight

.

Speculum

.

Mind like a looking glass
Focus what is perceived
Such ability
Should be used
For more
Than burning ants

The fun house mirror
In my eyes
Makes small gestures tall
The waifish fat
The linear
…Impossible

Seek not your reflection here
Unless you have a hearty sense of humor
And the true understanding
That we know nothing

    Focus what is perceived, that line is so insightful, I could ponder it
    and the rest of the wise poem forever. Yes, so amazing how little
    we know. Thanks, again Ozy for the food for thought.
