Blue, Brown, Black, Hazel
Green, Purple
Sad, Angry, Joyous, Gentle
Blank.
Looking threw a telescope
Staring out a plane
Scowling at the door
Sleepy watching TV
Alert on the computer
Shocked at your presents
And thoughtful at your homework
Eyes tell a lot
Even with no mouth
Watching
Waiting
To steal your sanity
To steal your soul
They want you to back down
They want you to be happy again
Will you give in?
