Sonnets Beyond Dark and Light
SONNETS BEYOND DARK AND LIGHT
Disparity between Light, Dark, appear
figments of obscure imagination,
insipid blight renounces thinking clear,
inept, senseless, snap examination.
Vibrancy beyond sight's spectrum clear
strives to snuff out distorted information,
punctures disdain, contorted context, seer
penetrates desolation's desecration.
Swift, skyward soar, to savour rapture sheer,
transcend man's shackled earthbound cutthroat nation
seize gracious chance, eradicate reign drear
of stuffy standards! key reverberation
spins atom ballet jaded comatose
envisage not, fear ominous, book close.
Preposterous opinions insincere
seek some concrete differenciation
between Light, Dark, Good, Evil, fixed frontier,
hidebound, unassailable explanation.
Through magic, mystery's dark hemisphere
often offers reconciliation
between known and unknown, sideshows switch gear
pull stop, cue universal syncopation.
Up-with-the-lark and slipshod, far and near,
meet, tale complete, as life's hallucination
tails to its close for commoner and peer,
torch taken up by each new generation.
Sophisticated, simple, Fate's dice throws
together, sable, white, unite, pulse slows.
Light dawns from night, foreboding disappears,
consoles, soothes exile's trials and tribulations,
infidel who surface shadows spears,
faithless, feeble, full of trepidation.
False fears ensnare blind minds, bind, domineer,
pestilence that needs inoculation,
infectious yet inadequate, they steer
manifest search for misplaced adulation.
Notorious noxious countenance no cheer
spreads, splatters venemous recrimination,
flicker fades, malfeasant none revere
