Looking to Find Out



I look in the mirror
But not very much
Now seeing it clearer
How aging and such
Has been taking its toll
No need to remind
Me I already know

Shaking off that fact
I look within my soul
Never mind my mind
Lost a long time ago
Too costly to find
But something is left now
That looks right to me

When if I take a look
Looking back I see
To speak percentage-wise
Where the 6.2
Of me being Jewish
Becomes me somehow
My DNA comes through

Having come to be
Orthodox on my chin
The corners intact
That God went on about
Oddly in his book
Unorthodox within
Orthodox without

About all I can wish
For now anymore
Is may I get as wise
As this old guy in
The mirror looks before
Seeing clearer then
Reflected in God's eyes

Looking to find out
What all of this was for
