Literature Text

stoic minded, red eyed
antipathy in all corners
bitter blood, salted lips
puckering with the acrid air

dull edge against thick skin
pricking, pushing
with no way in

these thin walls keep what's inside
and inside I will watch
with all four eyes.

I like how compact this is.  I can't put my finger on it, but I somehow feel a sense of hopelessness.
What is meant by "four eyes" in the last line?
