Pathogenic Ocular Dissonance - Tourniquet

The iguanidae sees East and West simultaneously

The praying mantis sees three hundred flies from three

Orbit of man, divergent strabismus and

Compound eyes alien by design

Pathogenic Ocular Dissonance

Unravel the surcingle, clotted and much

Excoriated eons of life unsound

Avert your gaze, the horrific pestilence

You are spared and standing on Holy ground

Searching nystagmus, it’s no wonder

Spiritual migranes still persist

The scales fall, the cataracts desist

The life you once led is not even missed

Pathogenic Ocular Dissonance

When red is green and green is gray

You’ve failed the test in column A

You see at twenty what we do at fifty

The wisdom of sight comes from the father of lights

The treasure you see, the treasure you know

There will your heart be found also
