My curiosity outweighed my embarrassment,
or at least I thought so,
and I thought I could talk to gargoyles,
because they seemed talkative,
or their stone eyes did anyway,
and everything looked better in black and white because there was no cause for confusion,
and I appreciated that so much,
that I often didn’t notice ordinary,
until you,
until you pointed it out to me,
and not to shame me,
just to tell me there was still time to open my eyes,
and others would still be there—
