one eye felt the cool rock on his cheek
his hands were tied behind his back
a tight band blocked his sight
he struggled
then a voice
welcome
and he relaxed
and his hands were free
still he could not see
we have waited a long time for you
one eye heard music
he had never heard before
and it took him where he had never been
and his fear vanished
he did not know how to describe it
only felt joy
you have much to learn
the music grew louder and
one eye slept again
