Rewrite:


Peripherals

They stand like ghosts within a bog
Like misty forms within a fog
But not to light or fill a gleam
Peripherals are like a dream

Somehow they hide their dull aware
Sometimes they slide beneath your stare
But they are there to fill the when
Just go back and look again

They’re trifles of a slice of thin
They only fill the back ground in
But they are there in fact and stare
And act upon the whole in bare

So try to mind peripherals
They’ll clear the picture fill the frills
And you will see a cleaner mean
In all in fact a sweater scene

For things exposed a brighter light
Will soften fancies of your night

Hi Sy...I had a peripheral vision test a short time ago....I was afraid my right eye failed..those blinking lights were wild..but I passed!!  It looks like you did too.

LOL I can't see you missing a peripheral.
You see things without glasses that I need glasses for.

Much enjoyed the read.

In the midst of winter,

An invincible summer.

peripheral or straight ahead
