When the patterns glide by Comparing swatches of the "is" and the "could be" It's easy to get caught in Things that don't, couldn't exist: Pressed and glossed but cut off completely As by a film, Just like the picture show. A sallow barrier reducing profundity to charcoal etchings. My eyes fog over with winter breath.

Intrusive and the Interlude
When the patterns glide by Comparing swatches of the "is" and the "could be" It's easy to get caught in Things that don't, couldn't exist: Pressed and glossed but cut off completely As by a film, Just like the picture show. A sallow barrier reducing profundity to charcoal etchings. My eyes fog over with winter breath.
