She is not the she from yesterday.
Will she still be here tomorrow?
Is she only a brief visitor --
as fragile as the glass reflecting her?
Look too closely,
and she becomes unfamiliar --
a collection of crumbling parts.
But squint a bit,
and you might see the she you remember.
This looking glass
is meant for looking --
not dissecting.
Go ahead and squint.
