I look at the world by Langston Hugues

I look at the world by Langston Hugues

Zephyr Cullen

The stanzas of 

I look at my body

With eyes no longer blind--

And

The fenced-off narrow space 

assigned to me 

I look then at the silly walls 

Through dark eyes in a dark face.

Both of these stanzas made me think of eyes, eyes that will eventually see in the darkness, hence the dark background with the light face.
