Happy New Year...........
False Images
I look in the mirror.
I pause and blink
as I realise it reflects
nothing of who I am.
The image staring back
looks nothing of how I feel.
Yet strangely
there are those who judge
merely by the superficial package
that only contains that of which truly is.
And the truth,
well it remains well hidden.
No one is interested in the truth.
Truth is confusing,
too hard,
too honest.
Leave yourself at the door,
Only the mask is welcome here
Thus endeth the entry............

I don't think I'll be getting any piercings in the near future. I just do not heal well when it comes to putting holes in my body. My ear took, oh... 9 months to heal, and my eyebrow never did. It just wasn't meant to be.
I enjoy wandering by here from time to time.
For your mirror philosophy I recommend the lyrics to Stan Rogers' "Lies", found at this site:
