Sideways
The mirror restores
the images we see
back from left to right.
– Or perhaps that’s right to left?
I wonder if there’s an axis in the middle?
Whatever.
It never switches up to down,
(or down to up for that matter)
even if you turn the mirror sideways.
It’s probably all gravity and stuff
that keeps some semblance
of normality on our world.
What’s up goes up,
what’s down stays down,
and so on.
It could be the other way around
of course,
– or maybe it’s all
just a little sideways.
