Keratoconus (2017, revised 2021)
Duration: 5" mins
Her filtered eyes are still and steady
Her malleable cornea immersed with
voluminous water-coats
Transparent ocean, very deep I see her pupils
So dark it seeps; bottomless pits of refracting light
Keratoconus
Disturbance of light and liquids
Ripples of shade and distortion
A cry of asymmetrical rhythms...
