I take it for granted Your brittle teeth My hammer tongue Jittery throat Don't try to speak You don't want me to listen My ears are waxed with distortion Hands off You don't want to touch me My skin is smeared on poison Don't even gaze into my eyes You won't find truth In the eyes of a Gorgon

Sunless Ocean. Jellyfishes Glow
I take it for granted Your brittle teeth My hammer tongue Jittery throat Don't try to speak You don't want me to listen My ears are waxed with distortion Hands off You don't want to touch me My skin is smeared on poison Don't even gaze into my eyes You won't find truth In the eyes of a Gorgon
A man named Perseus once gave me two eyeballs. I was so happy.
