Mirror

Christian Century,  Sept 20, 2005  by John Mann

Mirror

   as through a glass darkly
   meant a window to my child's eyes,
   probably at night, or perhaps it
   was the frown our mothers told
   us God might make permanent
   so we'd better cut it out,
   that dark look we got sent
   to our rooms for, but when
   mirror was finally identified,
   like looking glass someone explained,
   I understood face to face
   only was that God's face
   lurking behind mine as I peered
   at the medicine chest in the morning
   or would we have eyes
   at all if we made it to heaven,
   drowning like moths in a sea of light.
