From the corner of mine, a witchpool of an eye
Mako enamel flicks greying slick
Mandibles' curl with gems gleam
Stolen birds'-egg eye, dishonest, milky-tea white.
White coals glow grey in darkness
Unwavering, rapier indifference
Unspoken plans undisturbed
'Congratulations', it purrs, the very air malign
A plagiarised knife-smile, seven hundred and seventy six sinews, all box-fresh, unused
Thanks, a hurried request
Gratefully, the door closes
