Boxes cast in brass
And green plexiglass—
They are ladder rungs
To Euclid's perfect world
Of yes-men. Each is one
Of God's immaculate fingertips
Reaching through. Inaccessible,
Virtues in identical wrap
Cast dissimilar shadows,
Overlap despite the sign
Whose letterforms
Say "Do Not Touch"—
Which even the creator
Aims to obey as such.
