An Omnipotent Eye by Dejan Stojanovic

Singers pass but a song lives
Feeding the eternal flame 

New minds, burning
Eyes, eager to hear, inflaming

Beauty, recognizing the spark
Shyly from afar seducing

Beauty, feeding the flame
Eyes feeding the beauty

The source of fire—an omnipotent eye
Hearing with eyes, seeing with ears
