spectacles

aging, attention, change, clarity, metaphor, paradigms, perspective, poetry, process, process, not a journey, vision, work in progress

from a work in progress: “process, not a journey” (55)

to see clearly I look

through lenses

made and adjusted

over time as my vision

grew worse

I understand to see

I must cast off

all perceptions

accumulated

within my cliches

like now as i remove

my glasses

and rub

my dim eyes
