Saša Milivojev - EYES
Saša Milivojev 1986 (Serbia)
In the eyes it is seen
Innocence to tuck you in
To bind you with wire
By peeling off the scales, to consume the soul
To make a coronet of straws
For the eyes that nail the words
Like stakes
To the heart’s silk membrane
The eyes’ shine tells
How lonely they are
How dreamy they are
For a touch
A fleeting touch
