How long can you let it stay in your eye?
easy to feel but not find
The search agitates the eye
more than the intruder
forgotten for the day
until the evening when
the lash sticks its one end
out like a kid
crawling out the door
in a hurry to evade
the mother
More than happy to
pick the eye
like an expert
without
the help of a mirror
