Steely Eyes

Nostradamus,
When you
Speak of
Fate and destiny
Of mankind,
The future
Have ears
The neon glaze
Appears across
Your steely eyes, but
We are still made of
Flesh and bone

But he had the brightest eyes to see a unique future though humanity is from flesh and bone and sees a far as the nose goes...Beautiful poem.

Indeed "We are still made of Flesh and bone." The prophets can frighten us with their forecasts, can't they? Very compelling, Gregory! Love, Carolyn
