Unicorns

the man in the mirror
has scars i can't remember
has feelings i can't quite place
the reflection in the water
is drowning and i can't rescue
from the grave to the sand
to the place where we stand
waterfall away the motionless
cast upon the memory that is scattered
juxtaposed insitue with creation
cut away the marble
leave only a unicorn behind

the man in the mirror
ha movements not in my dance
forward, back, back, side, back
where is he going?
where is it he aims his claws
drinking to the summarizer whom counts down to one
movement guaranteed till morning is nigh
escape

break the window, watch the shards fall
darkness descends, where to from here
the man in the mirror has no mind
from here he only goes as far away as he can
