I have shut myself inside this box.
Sealed it well, from the inside,
And filled the cracks.
I fashioned it myself,
Based it on a model I devised long ago.
I remembered the dimensions intimately.
And inside I am safe.
Inside, I can hardly be seen.
The art of invisibility is slowly and carefully learnt.

I have shut myself inside this box.
Sealed it well, from the inside,
And filled the cracks.
I fashioned it myself,
Based it on a model I devised long ago.
I remembered the dimensions intimately.
And inside I am safe.
Inside, I can hardly be seen.
The art of invisibility is slowly and carefully learnt.
