For a Child (Of Four)

a reflection on The Mysteries of the Horizon http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Mysteries_of_the_Horizon.jpg

Listen

Child!

stop your thoughts

and run

to the stream.

There you will find

a guide, fox.

She will help

you to

find the answer

to the riddle.

I leave you

with this:

four paths

in four levels can

begin

in as

many as

four places

or as

few

as

two.

Author's Note

Inspired by Rene Magritte's painting The Mysteries of the Horizon
Some of the formatting is completely lost on the text, because I can't do everything I want on this simple editor. One day, I'm going to buy Photoshop for my poetry.
