Cracks In The Mirror Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

Cracks In The Mirror



Cracks in the Mirror

The ship’s gone, sailed without me,
alone in a hotel room I sweat and try
to stop my hands from trembling;

they threw me ashore, the bastards;
I looked nonchalant walking down
the gangway, two fingers in the air;

I have to leave this room, must walk
tall, I’m a real tough guy- get that right-
but first I need a little drink or two.
