those eyes
are a mystery
evolution
from blue to green
glass spheres in a box
on and off
stop on a dime
when you disturb those eyes
they flare
a meteor annhilates you
when you evade those eyes
they encircle you
leaving no room for exit
when you caress those eyes
they retreat
quivering
and phosphorescent
when you dry those eyes
a residue of pain
persists
those eyes
won't tell you
a motherfucking thing
they shut down in a microsecond
black
and lethargic
the only clue
to those eyes
is a trip wire
a hairtrigger gunshot
of molten emotion
waiting to be vented
