The Box Maker

The Box Maker

A Poem by hanselwheresgretel?
"

I've been reading Flatland recently and been trying to grasp the concept of a 4th dimension. It is hard to wrap my head around. Try it :)

"
The beautiful creature is not asleep.
It is outside, peering into the box.
Waiting to be met and befriended, 
or caught, for its clever mischievery.

Behind the smoke, it lowers its threads.
Clues for those who feel it dance 
across their cheek when the wind blows.
Patiently. Waiting ever to be found out.

So very true!
I do't get the idea of a predator. From your description at the top, I do visualize a parallel world of which we sometimes get glimpses.

I do believe in a fourth dimension.
