Awe is behind the solipsism that narcissists
apply to themselves, as much as much as modest folk
might be in awe of an object or person outside of them.
That thing can be a piece of art, or an animal
who we know has a consciousness different to us.
Whatever we see with awe we are as part blind about it
as when we are when looking at ourselves.
We shift, the blinkers stay, the views change
but the limits of our recognition remain the same.
But least we partially see beyond ourselves.
