Superstitious I am not,

Nor myths do I believe.

But when people tell you to be warned,

You'd best be listenin'

For I even now believe.

It started with a mirror,

That shattered in a car.

Then three years laterl,

We had gone through more than twenty vehicles,

And the same amount of homes.

We used to have a lot of pets-

Cats, fish, snakes and more.

Then one by one they passed on,

Into the afterlife, the beyond,

With no explainable cause-except the mirror from long ago.
