I don’t think they should always look how they do

Sometimes the mirror is too clean

The pupils mired in similitude


When one looks, one sees, one imagines,

what could and could not be

The opposite is also just as true


"I'm bored by this veracity"

He speaks through his eyes and hands

The mechanical box agrees


Why don't we try something new?

Touched by the breeze of one thousand gales,

of but one

The crystal explodes into luminous fragments

And is put back together as was not before
