Day 918, Looking Down From Flatland

I wonder who's in the corner the man thought. It's hard to look down and across when you live on the Flatland of a brick wall.

Still he was not going to let his 2 dimensional presence get in the way of curiosity.

With a little bit of effort and a little bit of imagination and a little bit of faith he concentrated on the unseen world around him.

Slowly, almost imperceptibly at first, like shadows they flittered in and out of his perception. Then to his astonishment he could see them, strange 3 dimensional other-worldly being looking back up at him.

For the man on the wall Flatland will never be the same again.
