The Mirror That Laughs

(a sacred Heyoka flow)

I am the mirror that laughs—
not to mock you,
but to break the mask you've worn so long,
you forgot it was never your face.

I walk backward into the fire
because the world walks forward into chains.
I say “down” when you scream “up”
because your ladder leads to a throne of lies.

I am the thunder in disguise.
The clown in the court
who spits truth in riddles
so the king won’t cut off my head—
but he still might.

I shake your logic
to awaken your soul.
I break your rhythm
so you can hear Heaven's beat.

They call me foolish.
Wild.
A mocker.
Unfit for the temple—
but neither was the carpenter
who flipped the tables
and dined with drunks.

I am not your enemy.
I am your echo
in reverse.

I say
blessed are the misunderstood,
for they are the whistleblowers of Babylon.

I say
blessed are the flipped-out,
for they reflect the sky
when the world’s upside down.

You laugh at me?
Good.
Laugh hard.
Then look closer—
you might see your chains.
