A set of eyeballs, to be placed at the bottom of a small - say 8'(l) x 3'(w) x 8'(d) - abyss dug into your lawn so that "when you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you", thus adding a certain Nietzschean flavour to an otherwise humdrum Sunday afternoon in the garden.

I have fairies at the bottom of my garden. |
|
|
Are they in an abyss? Or do you have
decking? |
|
|
I much rather see Nietzsche's abyss straight on.
Because, let's face it, if you're looking down into it,
it's clear who has the advantage. |
|
|
I think an abyss is defined as bieng immeasurable in
depth. This bieng said, I like the idea. |
|
|
That's not an abyss. That's a grave! |

You'd have to bundle it with a monster
(link), as the whole quote goes, |
|
|
"Whoever battles with monsters had better
see that it does not turn him into a
monster. And if you gaze long into an
abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you." |
|
|
I just like the idea of an abyss at the end of my garden. The eyeballs would be a bonus. |

/Whoever battles with monsters had better see that it does not turn him into a monster./ |
|
|
Although temporarily turning into a monster could make you better at battling. |
|
|
What if you start out as a monster ? |
|
|
Better watch out you don't turn into a human. |
|
|
Nietzschean Abbess eyeballs ? |

Sooner or later, it'll shrivel up and drop off you know. |
