Don't have conversations with poems

In my eyes there's a reflection of you An infinity vision playing out Where the answer lies Once the truth becomes a speck Of diamond dust Do I dig out my eyes to see? There's a flaw to that plan... Perhaps one But I feel convinced Depth perception is needed A third person perspective What does that do to infinity? It's a mexican stand off I'm not going to grace this poem With an ending...

I agree...depth perception is a must when reading poetry or experiencing another person's perspective. I liked these words:Once the truth becomes a speck Of diamond dust Nicely done, Di11y...enjoy your evening, Sara

I go for eye exam for my license next week. I can relate to this fear of eye failure. Thank you for a poem.

Thanks Hilda, I was trying for some cosmic revelation but I used to have lots of dreams about eyes as a child - good luck with the test

the ending of a poem is always...the beginning...of....well, y'know...those thingy things....like..thoughts...uncovered...in need of inspection.

Out of the box is where I reside, good to see you do to, Do I dig out my eyes to see? loved that line, and the ending (although you didn't end it haha) is genius

This was supposed to be a star clarity poem but they keep going off on tangents - glad you liked it regardless :)
