When the gaze is reverse the eyes are weapons. and shouldn't be carelessly pointed where you don't want to destroy. But they're weapons whose violence derives from the vulnerability of the wielder. The gap helpless gap beween wishes and vision shoots out and wounds you. It leaves you grimacing, longing, apologetic, or scared.
Keep your weapons checked. Look down at the street as you walk. Don't let them linger too long and keep out of the way of those that do. There are no safeties. Bullets could fly at any moment. Savor truces when possible. If you can't evade fire, shoot back. Riddling each other with wounds is the best.
