He looks at himself

looking at himself
and he tries to step
outside of
the infinity of mirrors
but the door is locked
and his image just keeps
reverberating
in an endless
identical
row, no matter
how bizarre a face
or rude a gesture
he makes,
and he shuts his eyes
and tries to take
a furtive peek
but the mirror is never
fooled,
not even for a microsecond,
and there's no way
to look behind it.
