We had to reinterpret the Narcissus myth today. I actually did three! :)
Narcissus (Love's Vanity)
I look into the pool
of your eyes
and almost drown;
hypnotized
by what I see -
my reflection, lit large,
more than what I am -
even
after all this time.
Mirrored in mine, you,
the same;
as still waters ripple,
depths unexplored.
***
Selfie I
Mirror mirror on
the phone who is the fairest
of them all? I am.
Selfie II
Roadside daffodils
as the girl takes a selfie
of her smiling self.
