Eye scream...



Out of only one,
Peering at the
Horizon, could
The Cyclops see what
Helen had her eyes on:
A swirling storm
Loomed above the
Mighty ships. Back
Into his
Cave the giant slipped.

I like the hypothesis that this word might trace back to the idea of the eye (ops) being in a socket (a form related to thalamus meaning inner room).
