Are cold as snowdrops....”

I am a plaster doll; I pose
with eyes that cut open without landfall or nightfall
upon some shellacked and grinning person,
eyes that open, blue, steel, and close.
Am I approximately an I. Magnin transplant?”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

But, since your eyes are blind, you’d say,
“Where? What?” and turn away.”
