Those Who Live in Grass Houses

Mirror

Mirror

Ah, always the same old question
who’s this and who’s that
who’s thinnest, who’s fat
who’s pretty in pink
and never mind the stink
who’s wise as an owl
with a voice that’s just foul
who’s strutting today
will be crawling in May
who sings like a lark
but shouts in a bark
who colours her hair
when nobody’s there
who sings in the bath
a complete psychopath
who fiddles and diddles
in the middle of riddles
whoever asks me again
will hear from me then
I’m only a mirror
and not wisdom’s pillar
now think of another damn question.
