Ink blots

By CloudRaven

Look deep at the card and tell me what you see. I stare and continplate the question, but try as I may all I see is spilled ink on paper. Do you not see a butterfly? Well, sorry no. Can you not see a face? I look again, but all I see is ink spilled on paper. Concentrate he screams at me. I think the vein on his neck will pop. I look again, get a little closer, close one eye, squint, still nothing. Just spilled ink on paper. I look at him, see the vein on his neck, decide to lie. Oh, I say, now I see, It's a butterfly. Ah, he says, vein deflates, jots in his pad and the shows me the next ink spilled on paper. Written March 26th, 2002 © on Mar 26 2002 10:20 AM PST    0 • 14
