Water



Water falling from the sky-
the eye is filled -
i wonder why -
What’s been walking on this earth nothing clean that  I have seen -
only filth that will be killed -
one by one -
the day  will come -
the eye can only take so much-
before it breaks-
and the water will fall-
and soon will consume us all -
you fear the eye -
but question this-
why should you fear-
the lessen is-
for whats not seen -
but surely is there-
can take away your life with just one stare
