By Jack Joseph Smith

Animal watched through the window; This home was gracful; he thought. Trees in that world outside of glass showed their leaves as distinct faces playing parts in conection upon an embodied vapenda; A SUSPENSION. Here Animal wanted to be lost in thought; dream of this as being his own enviorment. But of course that was not the possibility; so he must speak with the peo- ple about their business. So fast he had begun to enjoy their presence as a manner of friends. But the glass again. He desired to not be behind it. The trees made him remember; they were like a spirit world, these leaves. To the sister; a flower was like a mountain. To Blankname there was to much human dust on the ground for him to flash on harmony.

Looking through the windows of a graceful house, Animal wants the dream of possession but is forced back into talk, class, and other people's business.

Glass is the key image here. It separates longing from access, while the restored A SUSPENSION gloss makes the embodied vapenda name that held state between possession and exclusion. Trees, flowers, mountains, and human dust expose how differently each person inhabits the same social space.

Animal gazes through a window at trees whose leaves seem alive with faces, wishing to dissolve into that world but knowing he must return to business talk; the sister finds a flower mountain-like, while Blankname is too grounded in human dust to sense harmony.
