An Appearance of Wisdom / Joshua Alan Sturgill
they listened to the lie.
And in the lie was an image.
And in the image,
an alteration
and he, for a fraction still
seeing by Sight
still knowing by Knowledge
felt her hand loosen
in his. He turned
instinctively toward her
already a vapor
selecting a mask
