What shows
how little
we know?
What can be is
oft far less than
what we expect.
What is now
has never been
what it was.

It is not what you read,
but what you see. Poetry
puts sound
to each insightful glance,
longing gaze,
or fluttering lash,
with scintillating
truth and accuracy.
Poetry has
the uncanny ability
to present reality
to itself.
