Look Them in the Eyes

The testimonies of yesteryear

Lessons that transcribe desire

Let’s not be too hasty to conspire

Spilled ink will reveal the liars

  2. Intriguing piece of poetry Eugenia. I wonder how many writers of this type could look the subjects of the writing in the eye. Your photo brings more power to the poem.

  3. Eugenia,

    Fabulous poem! I love the rhyme of your ending words in each line – desire, conspire, liars. This is something I wish came natural to me. Ooo, what interesting poem! I wonder what lies were revealed? Thanks for sharing!

    1. I’m glad you liked it, Patricia. I find cat’s eyes beautiful and fascinating. They have a way of communicating that doesn’t need to be verbalized.
