“The mirror always lies”
(Apt lyrics for present age of socio political self destruction: overconfidence in ignorance.)
Man before the mirror checks his camouflage.
Polishes his armor, and the charger in the garage.
Woman before the mirror, appraises her disguise.
Girl become a woman, she tries to fix her eyes.
Men and Women together
Mistake conceit for pride
Ambition for illusion
Dreams for self-delusion
All puffed up with vanity
We see what we want to see
To the beautiful and the wise
The mirror always lies.
