Meticulously analyzing,
Searching for something nonexistent.
Yearning to discover a meaning, a purpose,
An underlying motive,
A rightfully deserved explanation.
Yet the more scrutinizing the eye,
Focused the mind,
The magnified image embraces in an
undefinable blur,
The squinting eyelid widens
To the sight of the wonders
Discoverable by stepping back,
Adjusting to a new perspective
to find an answer.
