If Looks Could Kill

somewhat a surprise
comfort  now my weary eye's
make me forget time

eye's across the room
come into my hungry view
my eye's are feasting

eye's follow their prey
betting their chances what may
devour love one day

the eyes have it...I saw your comment (someone left his calling card on it) glad my words gave you such pleasure...when is the super bowl? I'll try to be there, but it depends...on circumstances...and if I'm in the souper bowl :-) captcha says 'ment' that means this is meant for you and you alone...

Looks can kill if the looks follow evil thoughts in one's mind..Sad isn't it..Thanks for stopping by, reading, and commenting on my work about "The Walton's"..Is that what men do when they go out and about feasting on unsuspecting women??...Sara
