How are you?
Check yourself out.
You hope that you’re alright.
You look at your reflection for some confirmation
and it’s giving you something else again.
The mirror’s telling you "No."

The you you see
does not agree
with your request for confirmity.
You want to be approved by what you survey
but it seems to be going quite another way.
The mirror, quite clearly, claims, "Nay."
You’re looking bad today.

Wish there was more to do
but the mirror’s given its review.
However you may cry and hue
the foot may wear another shoe.
Your reverse looks like a dope.
The mirror blasts to you a "Nope."

Sorry. We’ve got the answer.
How are you?
Take a look at yourself.
You’re bad.
You’re sad.
It’s a tad too late to change the state;
The mirror has denigrated you.
