The table
And its shadow
Could be an introduction
To a work by MC Escher
The vase
And the photograph
Each have their own reflection
Thanks to Pilkington glass
I, on the other hand
Read of ‘Otherness’
Where I am led
By Maria Popova’s Brain Pickings
All the while
The black and orange twigs
In the cream and black, enamel jug
Simply, silently, serenely watch on
