Doppelganger

Saw my doppelganger.
Felt the pang.

Of recognition.
In another.

Big hair.
Broad smiles.

Both doing fine.
At the same time.

The real world appeared.
And so did I.

Across the street.
No chance to retreat.

From the mirror show.
No longer just a shadow.

Brought into the light.
A certified replica clone.

No longer alone.
Me, myself and them.

Opaque algorithms.
Outside existing laws.

No flaws.
Just understanding.
