Someone left the mirror running
I pulled the plug out
        it emptied my face
        and drowned my reflection.
I tried mouth to mouth resuscitation
        the glass broke
        my reflection died
Now there’s only one of me.

I had a Dongee
Who would not speak
He wouldn’t hop
He wouldn’t creep
He wouldn’t walk
He wouldn’t leap
He wouldn’t wake
He wouldn’t sleep
He wouldn’t shout
He wouldn’t squeak
He wouldn’t look
He wouldn’t peep
He wouldn’t wag
      his Dongee tail.
I think this Dongee’s
      going to fail.
