They walked in the shop together and they looked around a bit.
Their eyes met a shopkeeper who never seemed to sit.

They made their way to the desk to ask what this store is about.
The shopkeeper just smiled and offered to usher them out.

"No we'd really like to stay. ", said they.
The shopkeeper said," then answer this question, okay?"

They nodded and patiently listened.
The shopkeeper said," what would you like to see?" With a smile that glistened.

"What is there to see?", they asked with irritation.
The shopkeeper unfazed said, " consult your imagination. "

They left utterly confused.
For how could you guess what words you could use?

The shopkeeper later that night would laugh to himself,
"They couldn't look beyond they're own opinions or see beyond themselves. "

See ladies and gentlemen whoever you may be,
Don't be guided by your opinions and don't use just your eyes to see.
