Can you see into the looking glass?
They are bright and beautiful with only two known to the world,
seen is a future filled with love,
a life abounding with happiness
their luminescence is none to be compared with even the sun,
lit by a flame burning for what it strives to understand
They see what no other can and believe with the strength of the stars.
Can you see into the looking glass?
They are soft and touched easily by a smile,
a glance and all anxiety is frightened,overwhelmed by a warm serenity
that will melt the iciest of hearts--
Can you see into the looking glass?

A poet&#039;s work is to name the unnameable, to point at frauds, to take sides, start arguments, shape the world, and stop it going to sleep.<br /> <br /> ~Salman Rushdie
