I meant detail as in reference to reality, its like writing about dragons, we know they dont exist but we ignore the fact that they dont.
Poetry / Beautifully Blind
With clouded eyes,
we looked at the faces that saw so clear.
And all we could think
was of how we wished
we could focus on our reflections,
and see like them.
But our eyes were meant for dreaming;
for seeing fuzzy outlines
and ignoring detail.

“Our eyes were meant for dreaming…”
Interesting thought.
I guess you’re right.
At any given moment, we all fantasize abt our escape from reality.
The way you view the world is filled with expression with every word you use in your poem. Adding more thoughts into your work might captivate others to read it and relate it more. Emphasize where you’re coming from and where you want to end up. If you mean to lure the world, try to implace realization in your pieces.
but what again what do i know.
beautiful work nonetheness.

I think this is a cute start…but I feel like you could expand this so much. You could make this longer. Good job though and good luck with this =]
I love the title of the poem, love the opening line, and thought the format fit very well. I, however, do not like that last sentiment. Detail is the dreamer’s weapon, and ther is no way a visionary can ignore detail! The last to lines destroy what you have set up.
This is very interesting, I really liked it, especially the last three lines.
We should not use our eyes just to see or look at people. We can use them to dream and see beyond. Your are right “our eyes were meant for dreaming”. We should consider them as poetic organs.
This is a quite intriguing piece about blindness and how the blind see. It’s quite short but I think you’ve said all that you meant to.
