To Andrey Kneller's previous piece

Reflect me as I am

"Reflect me as I am, — three-dimensional!
Do not flatten me with your exterior,
rather curve from all the conventional
and engulf me,-- first the inferior
 
and then cover it up with affinity.
Swallow light and reflect its radiance,
capture everything in your vicinity,
and invert the lines of your radius
 
as to include all of the outwardly,--
everything that is our of your medium.
In a sense, I guess that I’m cowardly,
I’m afraid of the permanent tedium
 
of the life on this side of the border...
so I beg you reflect me, I’m sinking!"--
Thus I prayed to oblivious water,
as the puddles were drying and shrinking...
