The Light

It’s dark enough

Here.

What with all the

Hatred

Pain

Apathy

Even men

Bring darkness

With them;

Hold it up high

Give it out to others

And call it

god.

Despite our best intentions

somehow

The darkness

Thickens.

We cannot find our way,

Much less each other

Like this.

I remember stumbling

Around in the dark.

So now

I

Want to be

A

Light-giver.
