Dark And Light Poem by moon batchelder
Dark And Light
the light invaded darkness once that was.
its brightness lay to waste the perfect night,
and blackness stained, blood seeping through the gauze
which hides a wound, while crimson rose on white
belies pretence, by hinting at the flaws,
the damage not presented to our sight
which tho unseen is evident because.
thus darkness was infected by the light.
so sing the praise of heaven! if you must
equate its glory with some transient star
though darkness were the better one to trust
which ever will embrace the ghoul you are
who sift through death to gather gold from rust
for light no matter near to you of far
one day when eyes accostume to the glare
shall simply blink out, vanish in thin air
A very interesting poem. The more I read it the more I like it. The verses integrate with the rhyming sounds and so I like the way it is set out. It seems to me to be a poem primarily about dieing. 'Sift through death to gather gold from rust' This is a very thought provoking line and can be interpreted on many levels. Excellent.10/10.
'thus darkness was infected by the light.' complex idea; I'm straining to follow it.. 'so sing the praise of heaven! if you must equate its glory with some transient star though darkness were the better one to trust' This poetry begs to be spoken out loud under a full moon.! (smile) It's so perfect.

Rare to find such complex writing that is still very accessible (I am no rocket scientist, LOL)
