There are only eyes appearing above the surface

There are only eyes appearing above the surface
in the brown water of the river’s pool
before they again disappear without a trace.
There are only eyes appearing above the surface
when it notices a prey, are covered by the water-curtain
where the crocodile hides in the depths of the river,
there are only eyes appearing above the surface
in the brown water of the river’s pool.
