"Did you ever want to freeze frame a single moment of your day, and look at it and say, 'This is not my life!'" - Robin Williams
Satan Grins Karen Hecht Springer June 14, 2018 Brother, can you spare a dime Sister, don’t turn away this time I’m cold and broken and the window rattles Satan grins while Fate tattles I’m amused by life’s deviant arts Humanity martyrs its animal self Shattered glass and mosaic parts Who I am, propped up on the shelf Brother, can you spare a dime Sister, don’t turn away this time I’m cold and broken and the window rattles Satan grins while Fate tattles I met the demons years ago Newly sprouted seedlings of doubt Through cloaked mirrors I still know Who I was, before the flame went out Brother, it’s a paradigm Sister, the clock’s about to chime I’m cold and broken and the window rattles Satan grins while Fate tattles

The mirror does tell a person's own past and present and the question of who that person has become. What matters most is what will become of that person in the future which in reality all lies in the person's own hands. Satan has no part of the person's future unless it is allowed to intrude.
