Look in Front of Your Eyes


Look in Front of Your Eyes


Don’t blink!
If you do you might miss it.
It passes by just that fast.
There’s just one problem.
You can’t keep your eyes open forever.
Sooner or later, your eyes will close.
And then, you will miss it!
It might be as short of a time as a blink.
It might be as long of a time as a sleep.
But your eyes WILL close.
And that’s when it moves.
That’s when you’ll hear the rustle of movement you never see.
It’s when you think you’re watching, but you’re not,
that black things fly at targets.
The black things have the patience to wait for you to blink,
to avert your gaze,
to daydream,
to sleep,
to not pay attention.
Can you see what’s in front of you?
Can you see what’s coming?
How long can you keep your eyes open?
