Theme Thursday - Mirror

To dislike another
is often a sign,
mirroring back
what we don't like
about ourselves.

Proof that
not all mirrors
are of glass
and reflect light.

They can be made
of human flesh,
reflecting back
projected emotion.

It is wise
to study such mirrors.
To accept,

change,
and grow.
