Bruce, mirrors come in all shapes and sizes. I think distorting mirrors are the only ones that show, to a certain extent, a zig zag pattern. In my humble opinion, your render doesn't meet the latter. It does bring a smile to my face however, but not because of the distortion but because of the beauty of your creation, Buddy!
If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins!
