Edmond Jabes' "Mirror and Scarf"

Reminded me a little of Borges. I won't copy the entire "prose poem" but here's a link to it at The Poetry Foundation . I enjoyed the whole thing but perhaps especially the epigraphic intro, which I copy out here: "We will gather images and images of images up till the last, which is blank. This one we will agree on."  --Reb Carasso
