Reflections

by Maryam Yoon



I am in the mood for disappearing

I find myself transfixed in underground glass

I am Circe in the dark, or Echo in a chamber

Evaporating into heat waves above hot asphalt

Emptying reflections into the eyes

of the one who sits next to me

We become transparent

We become our own twin witnesses

Camelot, Lancelot,- Shallot

Real, hollow, and whole

We are imperfect imprints

pressed into the past

We are a joint burial, and

the dirt in my eyes tells me

that you are trying to bury me first.

You are undertaking this with skill

And I am discovering the truth

This is not water

This is empty space where eyes meet.
