   At times, when my view of the world changes, the world changes.   
   Instead of being all-involved, another Road is taken. For granted.   
      
   Kinda like when viewing a two-dimensional representation of a cube   
   and only the frame-work is visible. It often flips its point.   
      
   Figure-ground reversals might be fan/fu in a Way.   
      
   When the world is seen as shen,   
   everything can be seen under the sun,   
   without leaving a room, one knows how it goes.
