The mirror and I. The glass fogs with our breaths but at least that means we
are alive. Then one of us begins to scribe letters in the mist. I do not know
which of us it is. I read an R E S O L… I hope for a moment that the scribe has
simply left off the “V E.” But perhaps I am reading the word backward.

True, very clever, Charles. Locking gazes with the mirror... not the first thing I Iike to do every morning. As a kid I used to write words backword and hold them in front of a mirror and read them correctly. It was fun.

ReplyDeleteNice, well-written and great ending! Keep these coming, they are awesome. Maybe I missed you saying it but if not you should definitely compile them when you are done.
