Empathetic Eyes


To see your sight; one can say is an impossible scene.

Seen only through your eyes

through your lens;

Upon inspection, a lens only is, bootless;

A tool for camera's clockwork;

a construct of viewing

a construct of rationalizing

a construct of deception.

To see your sight one can say is an impossible scene,

but a camera's clockwork cannot capture

a scene without the correct lens.
