Six Eyes

A man has six eyes
But he is totally blind
He goes out for some bread
He loves the smell coming from the bakery

The man greets everyone
Walking on the street
His blind dog directs him
To the bakery that he loves

The man’s been blind 
Since he was born
He wonders if he really has six eyes?
He’s never counted them.

His sunglasses have six lenses
They are heavy on his nose
His head is bigger than others
Otherwise his eyes don’t have room.
