Flaws upon a face;
each indicate a place
where pain and sorrow grew
as an eddy of death-in-life flowed through.

Monitor the mind
that scatters the leaves the wind destroyed.
Monitor the mind
that blows its dead selves through the Void.

Each imperfection
is a recollection
of where unguarded thoughts
have left their mark;

a clear reflection
(in a dusty mirror)
of a deep and dazzling dark.
