I know only one utterly beautiful thing,
My ravenous eye knows only one thing:
That is to look at Mysikos.
To everything else,I am blind.
(MELEAGER)
Her necklace is made of buds.
Her bones are delicate reeds.
She wears a signet ring
and has a lotus in
her hand.I kiss her
before everyone that
they all may see my love.
She enraptures my heart,and when
she sees me,I am refreshed.
(20TH DYNASTY, NEW KINGDOM EGYPT.)
Your kiss is laced with birdlime,
And your eyes,timarion,with fire.
Look at me, and i burn,
Touch me and I am caught.
(MELEAGER)
**************EYES AND STARS***************
You are star-gazing, my star?
I wish that i could be the Sky,
With all those eyes to look at you.
(PLATO)
YOUR BODY IS ALL GRACE
YOUR EYES.....HONEY,
THE LOVE FLOWS INTO
YOUR LONGED-FOR FACE.
(SAPPHO)
********LOVE, YOU DISTIL DESIRE UPON MY EYES**********
