Through the glass; through the invisible world.
It didn't last; edges returned,
and I continued on.
Sheath of feeling. Words groping to touch air.

Transparencies
Momentarily I became soft, not soft exactly but like glass become thick liquid, melting, memories of hot silica, pliable, and if you knew you could reach your hand through to the other side to Alice's Wonderland.
Through the glass; through the invisible world.
It didn't last; edges returned,
and I continued on.
Through the glass; through the invisible world.
It didn't last; edges returned,
and I continued on.
