A Little Something Extra

I’m terrified of the dark eyes. I know they exist because they exist in me. I think, if I can eliminate the dark eyes from myself they will naturally cease to exist from the world. But I cannot seem to cast them out, and the effect seems to cause them to gain strength and territory. Such extreme despair, to witness my own self flagilation and be impotent to stop myself—worse than impotent, because every movement I make to free myself tightens my bonds. Mustn’t it be God? That’s put my tail in my mouth and causes it to sink deeper with every effort to choke it out?
