Skins
Everywhere I look,
I
see skins
Skins of coffee cups,
Skins of books,
Skins of houses,
Skins of telephones,
Skins of trees,
And, of course,
Skins of people.
Plato
Saw shadows,
I see skins.
Skins are wrapped around meaning.
Skins are not definitions;
they are Definition-carriers,
Describing something
Much deeper.
