"set fire to yourself"

what does the blind man see in the mirror?
how do i explain when explaining is
merely placing my thoughts into words
that another hears
when all one has heard
is my interpretation.
how inadequate that would be.
the best explanation i may offer
is set fire to yourself,
in such suffering
your awakened self will rescue you.
