Poem Commentary

Always looking but what are you seeing?

A Way to Tell

Words tell a fact or lie or just make noise.
Letters are how to send the words to tell facts or lies but makes no noise!
Mirrored reflections show the other side of a picture but when you use two,
The picture becomes the same yet new.

Under water a reflection changes and becomes the same, yet different.
Much like people but thats where the reflections seem to change with repent
It looks the same but not, yet even different is not a bad thing.
A shimmer, a wave, the picture changes, stays the same, changes bring.

It is the way we look at it that makes the difference in what we see.
A stair holds terror for some and nothing for others, its the picture,
The picture in their mind that makes the difference.
People are people and that won't change, but the way their seen, no pretence.

Totally different game, sorta the same, and yet another sight to see.
The way we look, the way we're seen, the you and me.
