Glass En Masse
It’s sometimes seen as goblets stored upon a shelf
where you can either look right through or stare back at yourself.
In a glass of tea leaves, your future may be spoken,
but its message like its holder may slash us when it’s broken.
It is a perfect metaphor of all that we may be––
on one hand pure distraction, on the other help us see.
Whether it’s a looking glass or one you see right through,
The glass you stand in front of mostly tells us about you.
Ooh, I forgot about marbles! (I realise that I maybe shouldn’t have been that excited about marbles!)

Why not? I was. It was a huge barrel full of marbles for 10 cents each. If I had been at home I would have bought at least 100 of them..

When i was a kid, I thought marbles were the MOST beautiful gems in the world. I think maybe I was right.

I’ve never been sure about how to play marbles. Do you just draw and circle and knock each other out of the ring and win the marbles knocked out?
