This is a submission for Kevinโs No Theme Thursday.
Reflections shimmer of broken guarantees
Fragments, shards, smoke and debris
Mirrored halls of refractive light
Walking illusionary paths of sight
Mirages and facades in time reveal
Hubris and pride shining through ideals
In shattered glass, wisdom does call
Greatest of flaws within our own walls
ยฉ๏ธ Laura Bennett
Iโm having a weird writing week, but I couldnโt pass up a chance to write something for this beautiful image. And plus, you guys know I have a thing with mirrors lol ๐คฃ
Black Moon Lilith ๐ 
I can sympathize on the weird writing week somewhat lol
Very glad you posted this. Thank you very much, Laura. Excellent poem. ๐๐

It goes like that sometimes. It sucks, I know, but it passes.
You can always use them down the road for a future post if something comes to you.

Kevin’s image grabbed me and could get lost happily looking at all the fragmented angles … I’m weird like that (LOL) Then I’m whisked into your entrancing poetry Laura โค with facades, illusions, and mirages. What I can clearly see after the walk on mirrors reflects back beings of light trapped within the glass holding the grand scheme in their hands. A play within a play within a play ~ Brilliant Loveee … you are on FIRE !!!!!

Itโs an in depth image for sure, definitely complex and makes you feel and think. Youโre not weird ๐คช and if you are, I am too! (Weird is good!) lol itโs definitely like an inception of mirrors, I wanted to write something more detailed but writing has been OFF it seems for me โค๏ธ you are too kind to me as always ๐
