And so all that is so
important to us really,
truth be told,
doesn't mean a thing
until one day
at the supermarket I
haven't enough change
for a loaf of bread.
And many of my friends
have claimed I was blind
but it wasn't so
I had my eyes closed.

Now that I've opened them
they still claim I
cannot see because I
do not see what
their visions whisper
to them at night.
