Big Eyes

A child, a young Girl, looking ahead. 

Not directly, but near. 

Her hair was blown back and to the side, 

it flies up behind her and across her face. 

There is a look of recognition 

or horror 

or both 

she is in a field - corn. 

She is grasping at stalks, pushing them 

getting closer. 

She is wearing a dress, puffed sleeves, and a pressed collar,

a stringy ribbon around the neck. 

Her eyes are largely off-putting 

wide watery 

her face is blotchy and haunted. 

two large teeth in the front 

draw your attention, 

an upturned, rodent-like nose. 

She isn't an ugly Girl, but 

the look of terror across her face

gives an air of unattractiveness -

or maybe the impression that she was pretty 

once.
