You Must Look To See
You Must Look to See
But there is a price!
Sometimes the object of sight
Looks back.
Hiding behind the walls of confusion
Will not save you from the backwad glance –
It penetrates even the darkest light
The darkest night
The darkest soul.
But you must look to see –
Even yourself
Especially yourself.
With any luck at all –
The image won’t devour you.
Do you feel lucky?
