The mirror in the back of your brain

The mirror in the back of your brain shines for anyone.  They can see into your eyes and through your skeletal grey matter and stare right back at themselves.  They can smile and receive the smile again.  You take the mirror out in the mornings to clean when you brush your teeth.  Baking soda and elbow grease and then put it back in.  But today you had run out of baking soda so you just ran some hot water over it and used a little hand sanitizer.  It didn't feel quite as fresh and the suds from the hand sanitizer (the little one) still scrub the itch back there.  tickles a bit.  Well shoot dang.  And you keep the tele on.  and the stereo.  and a video from the world wide interweb.  

just. to. keep. from. listening.

wouldn't want to wake the neighbors.

and you're doing good, how's it going for you?

gotta remember to put baking soda on the grocery list.
