Upon Reflection

RDP Monday: OLDER

Today I looked into my bathroom mirror

and I said to the slightly worn  face,  shrouded in mist and droplets of cool water,

” Who are you? Are you me? Are you Anita?  ”

The face in the mist did not not reply.

It looked at me sternly.

 

I asked again.

” Who are you? ”

And then the face, shrouded in mist and a lot of years  put it’s hand against the glass,  it pushed it’s face against the mirror and then it did not ask as much as it demanded to know

What the Hell are you and where is Anita? ”
