A Picture of Darkness

Only light can camouflage darkness

What is light trying to hide?

Where there is supposed to be nothing

The face of darkness gave birth to light

Light was not, before there was darkness

Every hue goes into darkness

Light bleaches and banishes

Dark blemishes

The picture is clear enough

For one to see the negative

There would be no light

If there had been no dark

Before the light came on

The shadow was on the wall

Long before the light came on

But no one noticed that
