My mirror is broken, or at least it seems to be,

for today I discovered an old man staring back at me.

I waved. I rubbed the mirror with my sleeve.

No matter what I tried, he simply wouldn't leave.

this man of age with silver in his hair?

 

Why is my mirror doing this to me?

Having this old man staring back at me?
