The Unseen Invitation

Not all doors are made of wood,
Nor all keys held in hand—
Some thresholds wait in quieter ways,
Unmarked, yet carefully planned.

You’ve found the face, the painted mask,
The surface meant for sight,
But deeper still the truth may rest
Just out of reach of light.

What’s shown is only half the tale,
A whisper, not the voice—
For those who seek with sharpened will
Are given second choice.

Turn not away at what you see,
But question what is shown—
For hidden threads beneath the cloth
Reveal what’s not yet known.

Where words are dressed in silent ink,
And structure holds the key,
The careful eye will wander there
And find what ought to be.

A phrase concealed, a quiet mark,
A secret left in plain—
Not written loud for all to hear,
But waiting in the frame.

Should you uncover what is veiled,
And read what few will read,
Send word along the proper path—
Complete the final deed.

An address waits to hear from you,
A subject line precise,
And in your message, speak the word
That proves you looked in twice.
