The Spectacle Of Life MAG
Struck by light
the nucleus dilates -
crying out for darkness
Batting lashes
shutters the brightness and speaks to
a gathered gloom
Soft, salty droplets escape the
ducts of your spectacle
and race
leaving their paths behind
Their watery ways tickle
the dryness of your skin
and soon send an irritated
palm to wipe them
away
and smear the black paint
that delicately coats
each lash
light?
darkness?
Chaotic is now how it all seems
as you look in the mirror and see
a mess
and the doctor behind you
with your new pair of glasses
