“eyeing it”

Written for:  The Twiglets #311 - eyeing it


She had been eyeing it
all night.  No one was
surprised when 
the diamond disappeared.


eyeing her arm
he had never seen a woman
with that many tattoos.


eyes follow
graceful movement
a white swan


            A man who was eyeing a llama
             wanted a photo for mamma
              He crept up too close
              and then it got gross
       Llama spit in man's face, a real prima donna.
