...a dark forbidding place;
yet the door
to much beyond -
beyond the reach
of thine enervate soul.
But, he who cannot
seek the truth
must surely have it thrust
upon him.
This page is predominantly white, with a large,
window-like opening in the center. A black-robed figure protrudes
from the lower right of the window. Its face cannot be seen, but
a glimpse of red is visible at the front of its hood. Inside the
window is a dreary, watercolor landscape. The sky is pink and, though it
is textured, no actual clouds can be seen. The sky, like the figure, protrudes
slightly from the window to blue, cursive script. The poem
does not impose itself on the window. Rather the previous lines were
at the top of the page and the remainder continues at the bottom, beneath
the window.
The red voice responds to the blue with the
next two lines. These say that such is beyond the reach of blue script.
The blue script answers with the last four lines. These lines state
that Truth is unavoidable and must sooner or later be confronted by all,
not just those who deem themselves worthy or unworthy of the privilege.
