WHY I NEED THE MIRROR

For a long time now in my life I have never owned a mirror;

Sometimes I am not sure of how I look like because I take long to go my barber

My barber has a big plain mirror; he even knows the principles of reflection for I can see the back of my forehead

I know it because the mirror keeps seeing my occipital and post auricular area because I read that’s what they are during my 5year stint at medical school.

At school, my hair well you don’t want to know but now it looks a bit organized thanks to the mirror in the bathrooms in my halls of residence.

But now that episode is over and I keep taking care of my hair, because the barber last me in January.

I at times use my sisters’ mirror because I still need to know.

The mirror saw me because it wants to tell me everything it knows about me.

And that is why I reflect what the mirror saw in me the way I see it because I like to share and I was told to share.
