Analysis of Made of Glass



Made of Glass

If I put down my shield, will you not hurt me?
There were glasses everywhere,
She has always been so delicate,
There were glasses everywhere,
Can you see them?
Can you see her?
There even was a Tree, a tall, robust, and mad looking growing Tree next to her,
There were glasses everywhere, so transparent, so shining, so fragile, so eternal,
The tree was afraid to break her and whispered, should I keep growing?
I am afraid! I might hurt you!
She answered, you can’t, you don’t have the power to see through Me…
