On dark (gallows) humor…

When you always face the darkness
To shine the light of life,
Those just barely breathing light
With no knowledge of the darkness
See only the shadows.
They are blinded by the dark-light
As light faces darkness.
Only life-light can overcome death-darkness,
Which cannot be overcome by light barely breathing.
The dark light dances
Blazing to overcome the darkness,
A shadowed joy too ebony.
As pressure creates diamond brilliance,
Barely breathing light accuses dark light
Of improper form and function,
Missing the million points of brilliance
Fighting darkness.
