Pyramid Eye Poem by Christine K. Trease

Stone will of desire spurning the yearning
just as certainly as the cyclopean pyramid
sadly reflects towards the sky,
its tear-stained eye winking beneath the absurd moon,
the blanket of the oncoming night will cloak you.
A veil of your sorrow will come in the form of darkness
and allow silky images to dance through your memory,
but once again, this momentary pleasure will only bring you pain.
The footprints of your heart will lead you homeward.
Alone you will stand
under the pyramid eye, tearfully winking beneath the absurd moon.
