A bristling sense of disgust

DOGS

We gaze upon our own image on the screen
and marvel at the beauty
of ourselves.

We are like the dog growling
at its own reflection in the water.

Narcissist?

We have scarcely heard the word
much less know its meaning.

Do we dare climb down from this precipice?

Or will we marvel blankly
at our own magnificence
until the sun falls from the heavens?
