When It's Dark Outside

Humility like darkness reveals the heavenly lights. - Thoreau

with empty pockets and a bankrupt heart

i thought i'd asked all the right questions

really i did

it pointed to an irrefutable, heavy truth

at least jimi asked to be 'scused so he could kiss the sky

oracles never cry

their tears are born dry

ouija boards don't lie

so long

goodbye

Author's Note

"The light which puts out our eyes is darkness to us. Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star." - Thoreau
