Just because I shut my eyes
Doesn’t mean I’m extremely wise;
As I listen to what I hear, I realize
Here am I in the demise
Of my own lies,
Which may come as no surprise.
People with their eyes closed in meditation always look like they're in full concentration or they know what they're doing (as an example of where I lead this poem). Honestly, though, if my eyes were closed in tense thought, chances are I'm thinking of nothing most of the time. :P
