If You Wish to Pierce the Veil
Place the Veil on your face.
What do you see?
Do you see swans?
Neither do I. Do you see
the cicatrix? Neither do I.
What happens next?
Build a cabin in the Veil?
Start a family in the Veil?
Small glowing stones
leading into the dark.
Years later when you are old
and tired of your life,
take the Veil off your face.
What do you see?
Do you see swans?
