Show Notes Rated R for disturbing themes and imagery When I Had Eyes, I Didn’t See By Anna Yeatts I had eyes once. Before the Lift-man came. Now I have knobs, smooth and black and round as pegs. I touch them with my fingertips and try to remember what it felt like, having eyes. If I push one knob in, the other one pops out like the elevator buttons used to do. There used to be a brass plate mounted on the wall next to the elevator’s cage with two smooth black pegs. I pushed in the top peg to go up.
