The Eye

by ssu7

Lashes the twister, belts around Twirls and dances, thrashes the ground Roots and foundations, tossed amuck Both mighty and meek, rendered unstuck Frenzy of flight through hurricane skies Through chaos born transient ties Each whirl of wind brings falling debris Both drip and thump land fleetingly But The Eye sits, in the thick of the storm Untouched unplussed, the formless form Watching the gale through translucent lid It lives without, while sitting amid I am the Eye That never does cry Knowing all that is seen Is a bewitching lie.

We are more than mere debris caught in a storm. We are the seer.
