Mirror charm

I must be honest with you. When I first read this piece it seemed unfinished to me. The last line threw me off. I understood what the line meant, but I was not sure how it fit with the rest of the poem. I realized that I was tunnel-visioned by focusing on "Reflecting a foreign country Reigned by the strangest law On crossing its border" in a literal sense. As I re-read the poem and saw the "foreing country" as a person or oneself, the last line makes much more sense. I wonder if there is a way we can make the reference clearer as to not confuse a simple minded reader/person as myself? Keep in mind the stench in my house may be affecting my brain cells...

you sure can put the "charm" in "charm". another great idea in the last line! personally, I think it's perfect. such a skillful way with this style of writing, my dear dragon, das ist und bleibt einfach dein ding!

Really liked the last line, although the entire write was very good. Gotta watch out for those lefts and rights... ~Jess K. ---------------------------------------------------- - "If we always give what we have always given, we will always get what we have always got..." - Mike R.

a tricky poem though not enjoyable by the simple minded people

Yes I know exactly what you mean and am in the same situation metaphorically, living in Norway driving on the right side!! etc. One is not sure where one's heart really is-mirrored in time. This I liked too. Nothing wrong and a nice strange ending. Respectfully Ann
