Are We Looking Through Sauron’s Eye?

 

Through our glowing palantiri we watch

Dark images, shadowy and flickering

Ghostly men gathered around machines –

Are we looking through Sauron’s eye?

 

A silent flash, and structure disappears

Enveloped in blackness and liquid flame

Arcing bits of metal and bits of men -

Are we looking through Sauron’s eye?

 

Are we looking through Sauron’s eye?

And is that eye now turned on us?
