there’s a new mirror
on the wall. when i look,
it has a ghoulish
reflection in the glass, past
me. the image appears stuck.
i bought it from an
antique shop. the owner was
glad to see it go.
she took my money and said
nothing about surprises.
i was not prepared
for mischief to happen when
i hooked up the frame.
if i stare long enough, my
eyes blur: i’m sure of nothing.

Nice collection of tanka poems for Halloween, thanks for using the prompt perfectly, I never allowed for the spooky season but you wrote using the prompts that served the scene well. Cheers!
Have a great week

Thanks! I have a special fondness for haunted mirrors – don’t know why. This almost wrote itself, which in the middle of NaNoWriMo was very welcome!
