They asked her how her green eyes gleamed
And she kept hold of the answer
So they said she gazed at the universe so long that bits of starlight flew into her sight
They asked her why she kept sunfish in a long glass room
And she turned her head away
So they decided that her mind had too much darkness, and the fish provided glowing light
They asked her what she wanted to be
And she stood and glided out
So they thought that she was deaf, that she wasn't quite alright
They turned to ask each other
Discussed why she acted dead
They wondered why she stared into nothing
And why the sea flowed through her head
One day the sun was shining
And she came out of her trance
A pencil moved across the page
And she began to dance
