Another late night concern raised by Indy of “can dragons be nice?” fame. This time an important physiological risk assessment.
Your eyes, by cords, are fastened to your brain:
They pass the messages of what you see
So you can understand it and explain
The world, and what you think of it to me.
Also your eyes are right inside your skull
They’re bigger than they look. Like ping pong balls
Your eyelids help to hold them in as well
I promise you no eyeball ever falls.
So do not keep them shut, no need for dread:
Whether they’re hazel, green, blue, grey or brown
Your eyes are held quite safely in your head…
But if you don’t believe me, DON’T LOOK DOWN!
