a giant eyeball flashes 'cross the sky I fly to its retina it blinks I am trapped my bed is soaking wet my libido dies I stand I fall to my knees dragging what is left of me gazing at my oppressor as a giant eyeball flashes 'cross the sky

What a "trip" Ricky! Very creative, if somewhat a little scary, image of the mysterious and unexplained. Ricky, congratulations on your win!
