Dark Night Full of Stars
Is it true? I mean only this
that always even sunlight vanishes
just as rain, rain clears, and most but not all
storms relent? Or would it be proper
if that glare that grinds its shadow
against the best of us and yes the worst
of us were to leave us nothing,
no, not a thing, but light, but light?
