spectacle

By freudian-slip

If you're blind...

push them farther down your nose...

it makes a person
appear almost real

who wouldn't want to increase their understanding
of the the human measurement
standing?

how they can continue to spend all their time
and technologically
advanced training


hoping to pick away
the glass fragments
from the remains that were their eyes


those simple beings...

observe how hard
they continue


to almost try
