Kitchen Reflection

The toast was done, I reached for jam,

Grabbed the ladle, didn't think.

My face looked back, a warped diagram,

A broken picture in a blink.


My nose, a mountain, high and steep,

My mouth, a slit, a tiny door.

The curves did secrets keep,

Showed me less and showed me more.
