*Runs into the lab with several mirrors and an assortment of other materials*

*Grabs a pot, and some water, and starts a fire under the pot*

"Thrice turns the Archimedes screw!
Thrice and once the clock-bird cried,
Ringing out, "It's time...it's time!"

Round about the cauldron go,
In the jelly-glitter throw,
Spider-silk pulled on a loam,
For days and nights-a fourty-two,
Ice of frost from cavers lost,
Vaporize in ebony pot.

Double, double, boil and bubble,
Fire burn and cauldron mumble,

Shattered shards of shimmering mirror,
Into cauldron crack and shear,
Mask of Fawkes, and cloak of feathers,
Shadow of the Moon, all together.
Bones of beasts millennia old,
Festering fungus from crone's toe,

For a beast of glittering shadow,
As Gram's mouth you slobber and fuzzle,

Double, double, boil and bubble,
Fire burn and cauldron mumble,

Fur of bat, tongue of wolf,
Rationalist's brain, raw engulf,
Of the tongues of politicians dark,
Root of Pi, off by a mark,
Book of Schopenhauer, read anew,
Finger of one on YouTube,
Light of star, burned to brown,
Water in which one had drown'd,
Negentropy of the living's breath,
Touch of tragic lover's death,
Make the gruel thick and slab;
Add thereto a tiger's chaudron,
For the ingredients of our cauldron.

Cool it with a mountain's blood,
The creature rises from splintered wood..."

...It was a good idea at the time to create a mirror-shadow monster that acted as a Glittery Siren...
