"Eyeballs on the Dresser"

Vision, static as in effigy,

glass eyes silent

upon your dresser.

A single graphite pupil stares at me,

reflected in a mirror,

while another watches

the dusty diamond motes

as they pass through light

like a saw.

You know they scare me

so you leave them there

and wear your sunglasses instead.
