The mute scrim of a fog
Defrauded the mountain view
Tricking the observer into
Motion-picture, two-dimensional,
Movie-world unreality.
And yet the mountain laughed
At the fog’s attempt
At masking the peak’s majesty.
It laughed and laughed
Knowing how temporary was
The nature of the fog.
“I shall be always be before you,
Simple Fog.”
But the fog acted as if it was
Completely unaware that the
Mountain existed at all.
