The Over-Useage of the Looking Glass

Many titles of various works use the term "Looking Glass". Some examples include "Castle Beyond the Looking Glass", "Other Side of the Looking Glass", "Through the Looking Glass", "The Ugly Man Who Stares at Me from the Looking Glass" and many others. To be honest with you the term Looking Glass should have only been used once as the poetic novelty half-life of this term is about everytime you say. Just say "Looking Glass" about 10 times over and it becomes almost repulsive and quite boring to hear. You can't have a Looking Glass these days with out it being some sort of portal to another dimesion. I'm just gonna come out and say it, mirrors aren't that cool. They might have been back in the day when it was like looking into a pond only you weren't bent over and it didn't looking like you were fading out of existance with a frog in you mouth, but now their just not that impressive. Shut up poets. You the kind of people who can't right coherent stories and attribute irellevent qualities to things and take longer say things then need be. Anyone one can be a poet.

What a poet would say:
I gaze out into the blue distance. Textbook eyes penetrate my concrete soul. Twisted pain is my emotion now. No entrance into intelligent interaction.

What a normal person would say:
Nobody likes me.

And you hsve the nerve to call that hard. Funnily enough I used to think a looking glass was a telescope.
