Mirror is on the top of a list of things with deep cognitive sense. It is the instrument of truth and self-recognition. Mirror has also constructive sense – destroys hitherto existing order of the world to initiate a new hierarchy of value. In Brzechwa’s poetry mirror exists as a turning point as well.
