I soak up all you give me <br /> Words and sweat and love <br /> I am the sponge that never dries <br /> The multipersonal man <br /> I am he and she and them <br /> I am a mirror, reflecting <br /> Alice was my friend <br /> There is no core engraved with me <br /> I am a pool of water <br /> Look and see a face appear <br /> Do you recognise the eyes? <br /> Do you think these depths are yours? <br /> Sometimes a mirror lies.<br /><br />Anthony Ward<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mirror-17/
