Sightless

Being visually challenged means I straddle the fence between the world of the sighted and that of the blind...at times my perch is precarious.




Sightless


Behind gauzy curtains
Waits sightless uncertainty
Seeking validity

Darkened sensitivity
Wicks enlightened candles
Denying challenged frailty

Visual reality
Frosted windowed honesty
Amid blinded truths

With you, my dear poet, there is no shortage of insight. Although you you live in a slightly different world, it is noticed only when you call our attention to it. Such beautiful and straightforward words:

Visual reality
Frosted windowed honesty
Amid blinded truths

Myrna Badgerow is the most normal of all the persons I know... the proof being in her amazing yield as a high ranking poet among us.

Indeed a mystic challenge of the mind, though eyesight may be weak the other senses and especailly your artistic talents still shine out in force. This write is strong and on target with the emphasis being on truth as the real sight.
