THE DIRTY MIRROR

How it pains; the nature of Man,
Of finding just faults in people and things,  as much he can,
Seldom he tries to look within and transcend,
The aberrations and faults in his own mind.

A  fool  found dirty the reflection of his face,
In every mirror he looked, and cleaned them at a frantic pace,
But to no avail, did he find his face shimmer,
For the dirt was always on his face, and never on the mirror.
