Slog - Comments on The Love Eye http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/07/that_special_eye In this image I find what I'm always looking for in a woman's face: a lazy eye. What is it that makes a lazy eye so special? And it can only be one lazy eye, not two. To find low lids on both eyes is to find a face that has been drugged. One eye must be alert, aware, and striking the surfaces of objects with its ray of vision. The other eye is the one caught between the sleeping world within and the awake world without. But why is this beautiful? Why is it sexy? What kind of love...

sample lyric--"i like the girls w the lazy eye. one on my pocket and the other in the sky.

and i like the girl w the extra toes. this little piggy went to market, who knows where the other one goes."

I like women with eyelids lowered somewhat, as long as its evenly and they look more relaxed/tired than drugged. Same reason too. Lazy-looking ladies are kind of cool/sexy somehow. Looks sensual. But a lazy eye? Eye-gads.

Instead of "lazy eye," he used the term "slight venerean strabismus." The Pagliacci guy/model who graced the "sexiest" cover this year had it completely down. Ahem.

Children diagnosed with this have to wear an eye patch to strengthen the lazy eye. It has nothing to do with eyelids.

I reserve the right to flinch for other reasons, however, notably my newfound -- and sadly, quite unforgettable -- knowledge of Charles' taste in eyelids.

He also had a crooked penis. Any correlation?

The lazy eye, is something of a different matter. Maybe it's just me, I don't know. I'm always TALKING to the lazy eye, because I want it to pay attention and not let its mind drift, but then I worry about the numero-uno eye thinking I'm an asshole (which I'm not, quite the opposite - I'm probably one of your newest and greatest fans). So, out of self-consciousness, I start talking to the bridge of the nose, a bad habit I've found myself as yet unable to bridge.
