the gaze

background story
Not long ago, while driving on a local highway, there was a sensation of “being watched”.

Do you know the feeling? The sense of someone's eyes on you? Maybe from across the room, across the street?

Well, when i looked to the car on my left, my eyes were met by the eyes of a large dog intently ogling me.

The dog and i, had us a soft, staring game, that lasted several miles, until the cars pulled too far apart to continue.

So today’s musing is a ponder on this feeling, that we all seem to be familiar with, the sensation of “the gaze”.


the gaze

the gaze

what is this mysterious force

that our eyes emanate - to make their presence known

potently charged beams

with kindness, or any other energy of our choosing

what shall we call this oft overlooked wonderment?
