Mirrors
I cannot look in mirrors, I’d turn myself to stone.
I find it’s rather poignant,
though,
to see what is your own.
You glide above the clouds,
I’m lurking underneath.
No one ever
told me that
My heroes had
sharp teeth.
I’ve seen so much down here
that would make
a mother
cry..
I’ve shown so many people
the realities
of your
lies.
It’s hard to save them
all at
once…
I try
to put
Them
first.
They see me as a threat,
at first,
a monster
with a thirst.
But I thirst
for something
that many monsters do.
Justice and equality,
to have it just like you.
You splay out
in your
ivory
tower,
up amongst the stars.
How’s the view from up on top?
Do you know
it‘s rightfully
ours?
We should all
share the glory,
the comfort
and the fame.
How unfortunate
we are to
not have power
and a last name.
So I’ve begun
to build a ladder,
so we can see
the top.
Many have now joined me,
They are hard to stop.
