Mirror

On the wall of the lady’s
A mirror is placed.
Every two minutes there comes
A girl, who will spend two or
More minutes before it.
Looking into it at themselves
To check whether there is anything new
On the face she has examined
For millions of times;
Turning around and looking back,
And turn back again to lift her bra,
Which holds all her happiness and hope.

A snapshot.
Girls are narcissistic.

"Looking into it at themselves
To check whether there is anything new
On the face she has examined "

"themselves"---"herself"?

"And turn back again to lift her bra"

You are blunt. Surprised Laughing
