These Eyes Are Watching You
...see your words
verbal manifestation of thoughts
portraits painted with syllables
of sensuous simile and meaningful metaphor
not critic but who assimilates random thoughts
cast about like chaff in the swirling wind
no object of idolatry
no persecuting executioner
no special one from any special land
no name, no face, no special place
ubiquitous with comment or without –
just a silent voice that speaks its mind
shadow of your spirit
wisp of your very breath
exhaled for all to breathe
your vigilant sentinal
