JTParreira Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 Brought it to the size of the mirror,he set himself With great art to copy all that he saw in the glass John Ashbery Beyond my mirror the faces watching they are attracted to the vacuum Inside the mirror, gestures mimicking life. J.T.Parreira Quote
