Work Text:
It’s my favourite, the proverbial picture that speaks a thousand words:
you're hiding your face behind Pippin.
I can tell you’re not smiling.
You fooled the world with your funny cat-crazy facade -
maybe not completely, but enough.
We didn’t take many pictures. Mirrors are better for hiding what we look like.
I broke a mirror the other day. Seven years of bad luck,
as if existence isn’t sufficiently unfortunate.
I wonder how that adds up.
