Star Child
You might think that a child of the night
would bring darkness
to the world around it.
But that created in darkness
can fill a need.
For what is the most noticeable thing in the night sky?
The stars.
Why are cities beautiful at night?
Lights: neon, flourescent,
all over.
like so, products of dark times
do not need to be an extension of that darkness,
but can function as light
for others.
