Inside the machine
I encounter
A monstrous eyeball
It's single lid sealed

The room begins to tremble
Reality seems to bend
Slowly, ever so slowly
The lid peels open
Revealing a blood shot eye

The eye twitches about at first
Darting from one direction to the next
Unaware of it's surroundings
Unaware of anything really
It sees, but it does not think

The eye focuses in on me
Suddenly I can see my reflection
But it's not the robot body I see
No, I find myself gazing
At the reflection of my human face

I get the impression this eye
Can see right through me
Can see my ever move
Can read my every though
Its gazes pierces my metal chambers

This monstrous eyeball
Sees but does not send
Any visual data back to the brain
For the brain ceased functioning

Not so long ago

Now it's just an eye
Staring at me
An eye backed by powers so evil
Powers of unthinkable magnitude
An eye staring to me

I step up to the giant eyeball
And I stare it down
I'm not afraid of it
I challenge it
And we stare eye to eye
