Going into Wonder

In Three Acts

Act 1

I’m living behind a wall. It’s safe here.

There is a window. I look out.

Everything is so clear.

I don’t even notice the wall.

Act 2

I’m dying behind a wall. I’m scared.

In the window, I see my reflection.

Everything is uncertain.

I notice the wall.

Interlude

I didn’t build this wall,

nor do I have a say in its design.

It always has been and always will be.

This wall is everything I will know,

the window is my experience.

Act 3

What is beyond the wall? I’m curious.

Anything becomes possible.

There is no wall.
