Simulacrums

Reflections Giant moving images that dissolve into one another A face caught staring at itself on a display window Offsetting the product that buys the face A face with unsteady eyes that wishes to prove itself worthy of the product. Simulacrums Constantly changing Like time lapse movies Ghosts that become demons and sometimes end up as goblins Demons that fly out on gossamer wings into a world and are better known as fairies. Images The fulcrum of society a society playing against itself in a hall of mirrors where bodies float in and out through the day and as the night draws, scattered, pretty faces try to find their missing parts. Mirrors Round, oval, long, polished and clean dutifully representing every mole, blemish, tear and dimple winning looks of admiration and sighs of defeat majestic rulers of walls and dressers But its the cracked ones that laugh the loudest they owe no allegiance to beauty or pride the crack after all is a repository of an intact soul.
