Banish the Light

Dark Poetry

Banish the Light

Why merely exist in the knowledge that the dark will eventually consume you? Why not basque in it, embrace it, forever be free from the fear of it! Stay not on the course of comfort, but be a deliverer of truth, and a giver of honesty. Be a burning flame in the dark and let it be known that the darkness is not a hole, but a canvas for those who know it and know it well. Not as a hideaway, but as a refuge, a guide in times of blindness. A lust in times of need and want. And a connoisseur of all that justifies its presence.

Banish the light, fore the hope it gives is arrogant and false. The truth lies in the darkness.

—J Dee Crow
