The Bell Jar

BellJar: noun -A cylindrical glass vessel with a rounded top and an open base, used to protect and display fragile objects.


Protect, Display, & Fragile.  Ponder on those words for a minute, and step into my bell jar. Feels different in here huh? Well there's no air, thats why you cant breathe, all of it has been vacuumed out. Dont worry, its not to suffocate you or anything, its just to preserve what is within. Everything is passing you by, surrounding you, and there is nothing you can do to engage yourself. Your efforts are unwelcomed anyway, pretty porcelain does not belong with human flesh. Now you must simply observe; you are out of touch with reality, cold glass separates you from others and the outside world. You must remain encased in the world your experiences, beliefs and actions have assembled. Yearning to be a part of something that doesn't and will never understand you, the cold glass protects you from being misunderstood. It puts you on display for the world to see, but you are untouchable to the smiling on looker. Tragic isnt it? Go ahead now, leave. Remove yourself from under this confinement. Fragile beauty must remain inside.
