DEFAULT


When I take my glasses off
I see the world as God
Wants me to see it
Peaceful and malleable
And the beauty is always
In the hidden details
This is not my fault
If I can see more
While seeing less
If I can find the softness
In human nature
The goodness of human beings
Ready to be deployed

I like this, with special regard to the layers of meaning effected by the line breaks (lines 2-3, for instance). The title adds depth to the whole piece, too (I think it's ingenious), especially in connection with the "if I can see more/ while seeing less" part.

Cheers.

All the best.
