Its brightness only seems to
darken in the light of day. A
candle that burns at each end,
this darkness is infinite plus
infinity. It blinds one like a
thousand suns. It does not
let up and it does not hide in
plain sight. It’s out in the open.
It comes in through the window
and through the front door.
