But how to see inside
And in between
When handed this and that
And not what it seems
A zone of thought to delve
And delve some more
The inner adventure equals
The willingness to explore
Reality defies exaggeration
Distortion belies edification
Nature needs no gloss
No ply, no buy, no excuse, no bias
Nature reveals itself
As our invisible friend
The self within
The perpetual spring that speaks
Even our chagrin
Is the glass half empty
Or
Is the glass half full
The truth escapes
The poles' insidious pull
The glass is quite half empty
And
The glass is quite half full
