The moon never lies,
the mirror is the real trickster
who reflects the exterior lie
concealing the beautiful truth within.
The moon never lies,
it's the mirror who is confounded
when presented with the self
which it seeks to annihilate
by reflecting the uninterpreted facade.
Naked, two-dimensional, sans soul,
gyrating as if to escape its own appearance.
Try to furnish imputations she fastidiously withholds
-- no, look back into the eye of the image
until you see what's really there.

Who will run?
the glass?
the image?
the self?
...and from what?
To run--such a tediously human infinitive.
(Thanks for reading us the story. "I don't want to 'go there'", either, but MUAH just the same. [My favorite part was watching you turn the pages.])
Selene, the images you grafted to the shape of the story are perfect. The poem of course is flawless, the music hugs the corners and the motion, the timing couldn't be better. You should go pro. Multi talented lady with a flair and an eye for deep soul.
edgy, experimental, wonderful poetry that captures the imagination and takes us to that not so distant place underland where we stand captivated by a poet whose surreal tongue unfastens language until we see the world from new and exciting perspectives. Quite stunning, the poetry radiates and the visuals send us in new directions. absolutely loved this :)

Surrealiciousness , an unfairytale wrapped in a vivid brocade of poetic words , evocative images , and a piano that brings to life the music box quality that is treasured before my eyes ..
