Beating Eyes
Faint whistles
of warring winds
CRASH
walls—
bloody,
skinned.
Shrieks
from broken hearts,
a cave carved
from darkness
and scars.
👁️
Eyes—
beating
bulging
black
Prey
pray
prayers of protection.
Panicked prisoners pry
at prison bars.
Powerless.
Paralyzed.
Petrified
of those eyes.
👁️👁️
Beating eyes.
Bulging.
Black.
Thirsty.
The predator:
Pale.
Punishing.
A face
that epitomizes
pain
and its pungent scent.
Poisonous.
Pitiful.
Poised—
To pounce.
To prey on his prey.
To prey on you.
👁️👁️👁️
Beating eyes.
Bulging.
Black.
Hungry.
