COMPETITION PROMPT
Write a poem or story about a mirror struggling with the fact that she has no identity of her own. (What could this be symbolic of?)
The "Look"
I am
The “Look”
A _noun _
or _verb_
And sometimes
Then
A “See”
They say
that I’m
An “Everyone”
But never
Just
A “Me”
I am
A “Gaze”
A “View”
A “You”
But when am I
An “I”?
Well…
Not an “Eye”
I’m “Hand”
I’m “Thigh”
But,
None of those
are mine…
I am the
“Look”
Both _noun_
And
_Verb_
I am the
“Inbetween”
A shame
To live
As "Everyone"
And
Never
Once
Be
_Seen_
