MC Mirror


MC's Mirror

Then looking in

They said

It was maddening

The seeing crooked

Measuring from

Foreign rulers

Metric distances

Fractions apart

Yet inches away

Marking twice

Trying to cut once

The frame never square

Bubble level left

Of center line

Shelves on the curve

Books falling randomly 

Ceilings sagging roundly

Over him.

I found it grand!
