Selfie aspirations
The constant
Hesitation
At the 20 pictures
Taken
In one
Session
Which one
Can make them
Famous?
No longer insanity
Or even vanity
It's just
The way
It is
Let's do a
Head tilt
Then some
Guilty Filtering
So frightening
That the
Lighting's not
Right
In here
Apologies to Jason
Mirror mirror on the screen
I'm the bestest I have seen
Why have I been born so beaut?
Why do people call me cute?
(Cos you're stupid....)
Who said that?....
Mirror mirror I'm so cute
(And stupid)
Stupid? NO, I will refute
Here's a picture of my tum
Gonna send it to my mum
(Definitely stupid.....?)
(Allow me a serious comment. The term 'selfie' was invented in Australia. We're not stupid here. Only the users of)
Love this Ruth, being of a certain age I find the whole selfie thing bizzare, I wrote one about it called mirror mirror, because it reminded me so much of the evil Queen in Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.

Thanks for reading Jason, Do.Rothy and Don.
I will find your Mirrors piece later Jason, I am really interested in reworking fairy tale into modern situations so I'm looking forward to catching up with that.
