In Praise of Darkness
Night falls, but day
breaks. A raw deal,
no doubt, but fairness
applies itself unevenly. Who
chooses weeds over
lies, flowers over truth?
Last night’s rain fell, too,
but didn’t crack the drought.
Again, we think injustice!
Again, we consider falls.
“In Praise of Darkness” is included in my out-of-print chapbook If Your Matter Could Reform. A few signed copies are still available via Loud Bug Books.
O at the Edges 
I’m entranced by the photo at the end of the post. However did you do that?

If I knew, I’d tell you! I found the photo on morguefile.com.

A raw deal! But was there a choice in there somewhere? Rise up and fall. You put it in words again!
