But the spot you are
looking at is the only fault.
You look at me,
But you see nothing
back.
You have no idea
what history and what people I have seen,
But all those people
just see me as an oxidized crack.
You look at me,
But you see nothing
back.
I have built up rust
and dust,
But that doesn't
matter because I am still just a crack.
You look at me,
But you see nothing
back.
A big shiny mirror,
Isn't so shiny with
a dark mysterious indent.
You look at me,
But you see nothing
back.
People look at
themselves in the mirror,
But when they try to
see something through me they can never see themselves.
You look at me,
And see nothing
back.
The point of view of this piece is important in the crack on the window because if it weren't, there wouldn't be any of the adjectives about the crack. If it were written in the point of view of a person looking at the crack, there wouldn't be more then a mere sentence about the crack.
