an eagle's eye
is one of precision
it observes well
all items
of near duplication
familiar in form
a matching
identic
yet there's a minute
disconnect
the incisive eye
is never totally fooled
the imitation
had not been well tooled
in detecting the flawed
item's sham
the eagle's eye
noted well the scam
