The mirrors on the walls

it's all an illusion

I follow myself, racing down corridors

smashing blindly into dead ends

a maze of mirrors

Tentative eyes meet mine-

I finally see something I recognize.

Fear.

Safety is a magic trick, a play of cards

I form an army of clones fighting themselves,

shards of glass scattered around my feet

as I fight through

the end so close

but so impossibly far

I'm the only player in this game
