Eyes. A pair of eyes. A million pairs of eyes
Eyes that stare, eyes that glare
Eyes which survey your body, eyes which pierce your soul
Eyes that record your every move and stroll
Eyes that daunt you, Eyes which taunt you
A hundred pairs of eyes. Whispering, chuckling
These eyes are the jury, these eyes are the judge
No matter what you do, these eyes refuse to budge
Eyes that glare, eyes that stare
Eyes which scorn you, eyes which warn you
Eyes that hold you guilty for toeing the line
Eyes that imprison you and demand a huge fine
Those eyes can stare, but yours should never meet
Those eyes stare victoriously, while yours must bow down in defeat
But just sometimes, at least somewhere
Your eyes also attack
And those million pairs of eyes fall cowering
As you stare back.
