Mirrored selves


Mirrored selves

Have you ever seen yourself
In the fitting room mirrors, reflected by the hundreds?
Looked into the eyes of your multitude selves?

Sometimes admiring
Sometimes critical
Sometimes encouraging
Sometimes aloof
Sometimes engaged, enthusiastic
Sometimes bored
Sometimes simply staring
With compounded curiosity

Did you leave them behind there
Or do you tote them with you, now
The price tag of a new dress?
