The glass in my living room window
Turned an orange sunset to magenta;
Everything else I’ve seen through it looked normal.
Perhaps it was the angle from where I stood?
But still: a gentle reminder
That what we think we’re seeing
May not be real, as it’s always filtered
Through the lens of our experience.
Try standing in a different place,
Or in another’s shoes
To get a truer picture.
