Close the Gap

Often I have thought

how glorious it would be

to own a little stick,

that swells up like a tick

when engorged upon the view.

To take my little stick

and hold it in my hand,

so I could really understand

the power it entitles me to.

After all,

You can climb a ladder much faster

With three legs instead of two.

Yet, I don’t need a third eye to see through,

I already know the vision is skewed:

Because,

when I look down at what I lack

I see a little gap,

I can still see it…

…Can you?
