Bring Along a Lantern
Night is not
The only dark thing
In the sky this eve
There are
Cormorants and crows
Here too
Both despised
By fisherman and
Farmers
Come winter tho
I too shall be thus
Exposed and starkly
Juxtaposed against
A backcloth of both
Pure and brilliant white
So I do beg thee
Bring along a lantern
And draw the night behind you
