Glass Ice
for K.K.

I want to put your eyes in poems
antithetical to wanting to put your eyes out

I want to keep them open
I want to keep them lit

such eyes make me write, make me writer
as well as more correct

my eyes in your eyes, I see twice as far
enable me to see forever
right here, right now
