Who reflects whom?

Knowing that a mirror

can't reflect itself, mind

gets tempted again, again.

 

Given the chance to reflect All,

it reverts to mirror itself.

 

When will it end, this self-infatuation,

this gazing at our own eyes, in every landscape?

Christ in the desert wasn't tempted with the world,

he was tempted with an eternity of adoring himself.
