An 'indoor quality' about me, you say
Though I have distinctly 'outside eyes'
This name gives me a closed demeanor
And an inability to articulate
Yet with my single sideways stare
A shot of skin and bone and curve
The muscle bound by peach
This slice of dark-circled eye
And a quick dismissive glance
Your words scatter and mine are found
