hidden in plain sight . are special places known . only to a few
without its cushion . a chair becomes furniture . that nobody wants
to restrict access . to basic necessities . shows what’s important
a society . shows its morality in . its priorities
there’s often the sense . of being watched, passively . judged without comment
specific dangers . get signs, general dangers . will reveal themselves
decisions are few . but the scenery improves . where the path narrows
autumn leaves explode . but the morning light chooses . which ones to highlight
it is often hard . to walk a mile in the shoes . of our own choosing
what seems odd at first . is often quickly dismissed . and becomes normal
