When

” When the inside is the outside

and the outside

is the inside,

then all is one, “

my friend intoned, a soulful look

sanctifying

his solemn speech.

It would have been

profound, indeed, had he not been

referring to

his flannel shirt

worn inside out.

    We’d all be able to call ourselves ‘Philosopher’ if we only realized how much of ‘life’ is metaphor.

    Just about to turn in and as far as I know, no one else spotted it all day. A bit too subtle as a Halloween costume I suppose. And/or no one else was willing to risk letting me know how far I had wandered into the great beyond.
