Compound Eyes

What side of life do you see?

Reflect the light

Facets of reality

Bejeweled eyes

Finding everything immortalized

in my compound eyes

A thousand colors leave you hypnotized

Fragments scatter out

Have you noticed the butterflies?

Captured in amber and taken to the hive

Small but necessary evils,

as you’d call them,

mirror back around

What comes back around

Clean up the mess that you all have made

Honey, don’t cry

You’d notice it if I went away

Don’t tell me lies

Clean up the mess that you made, don’t cry

You’d know if I went away, don’t lie
