Through the Glass

A one eyed woman
stared at me
across the crowded
train
She wore all black
had knarled hands
her smile was half
insane
I tried to turn
my eyes away
But that one eye
held me bound
I felt the hair
raise on my neck
Yet I couldn't
turn around
She cackled then
an evil sound
exposing twisted
teeth
She raised one
knarled, weathered
hand
and pointed
right at me
"Here in my bag,
lift up the mirror-
turn it, so you can see"
And as I stared
into the glass
One eye
looked
back at me
I couldn't move,
I couldn't speak
She stood and
limped away
Her cackle
echoed
through the train
and haunts me
still today.
