I Only Have Eyes for You


Ms. Matlock seems to be in Halloween mode with her Saturday Centus this week, a picture prompt that speaks a thousand hundred words, because that's all we're allowed. 100 words to make sense of the worst case of red-eye I've ever seen. (Couldn't you have photo-shopped this out, Jenny?) Ah well, ours is not to question why. Ours is but to do or die. Here goes:


I Only Have Eyes for You
©2012 Susan Noyes Anderson

The glow of your eyes make me weak,
and the way they reflect on your cheek
sets my whole heart a-flutter
till blood-starved lips stutter,
"Come kiss me, you fabulous freak!"

The things people will do for a kiss
Liking the responses to that upside down red eye

Amy said...

Creepy! But I thought your other Halloween poem was much spookier. Although, that eye really does give me the creeps.

Jenny said...

How fun Sue! That picture still creeps me out so I'm glad I'm reading this in the daylight!
