Laura Miller said . . .

Is it really better to light a candle
than to curse the darkness?

They say that a light
shone in the darkness

And the darkness
grasped it not

Maybe the darkness
just doesn't get it

Maybe sometimes
we just need to curse

Maybe sometimes
it needs to be dark

Maybe sometimes
we are just wasting a candle
