Skin is what I see, not what’s within.
Castle walls might block me, thick or thin.
When they crumble mysteries begin
To lock outside whatever went right in.

If only we could see what’s within before the wrapper.

I am still scratching my head over the poem. 🙂 I suppose an x-ray would do that, but it only looks at the boundary of other stuff within not the stuff itself anymore. Thanks, Dan!

Thank you! I don’t have a link for your blog. If you link a poem in a post to dVerse I will be able to see it and so will many others.

I don’t know but it is probably in your configuration page on WordPress or Blogger whichever you use. You might ask their helpdesk.
