Reach out and touch your fingers to the glass.
do you see?
Look at the bars, the finger-smears and the tearstains, the shining reflection and the mirror image of yourself—
look beyond that.
Look at the sky, at the trees, at the beautiful, stunning, destroying-the-sunset skyline—
then blink and look beyond.
Look at the people, watch them with patient eyes, follow their trends, their paces, their affections, their affectations—
look through that.
Look at the emotions that paint the sky blue, the science that explains how, the logic that dictates to society and the society that dictates to logic; for what can and can’t be done—
then look through that.
do you see?
What, exactly, do you see?

Yay! I'm glad you like!
..I like what I am saying more than how I'm saying it.
So? What do you see? When you get past/through people and emotions and everything, what's left?
I am obsessed with these unanswerable questions ever since reading that Atlantis short story. Short stories always sick with me way better than everything else. Odd.

..except i have to disagree with emily. in fact, the only problem i have with the piece is that line. watch them with patient eyes, follow their trends, their paces, their affections, their affectations. it's too.. it breaks the feeling of poetry that you create, solidifies it too much.

dark pictures, thrones, the stones that pilgrims kiss,
poems that take a thousand years to die;
but ape the immortality of this
red label on a little butterfly.

Really? ..er, how? (confused ellen is confused) I need a line that tells you to look at people (sort of like how you would look at animals in a zoo, is what it is supposed to reference) and then to look past that.
