An eye for an eye

An eye for an eye,
may leave the whole world blind.

But,
What if the people are blind
already, so used to the dark
that even a 'tubelight' can

sun-burn their frozen minds!

An eye for an eye,
may leave the whole world blind.
But,
what if people don't wish to see at all,

content with their 'sixth sense',

happy-go-lucky in their 'perfect' world,

they'll be happy to trade one eye

for a decent fee.

An eye for an eye,
may leave the whole world blind.
But,

what if people want a third one,

forever greedy for more,

to rejoice among chaos,

to destruct everything,
everything but themselves.
