Between White And Black (Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

I am so caught in technology
that my moments do turn to nothing
when the Escom / municipal power is missing
as if nothing do remain in powerlessness
but then I do think about Your presence in the here and now,
how it is when that bright light does suddenly go dim,
how it would be if a person full of darkness and sin
have to see You in Your full glory
but we do live in a world full of fear
between the being on and being off,
(especially at Koeberg)where spanners do fall into nuclear power plants
where nuclear power plants do explode with radioactivity (especially in Russia)
where a more stupid than earth government do invest in Russian nuclear power
want to erect Russian nuclear-power as if we do want eternal darkness.
