God gives
a candle
To his
children afraid of the dark
How can
you die, it says
When this
between you lives forever
The candle
is hard to maintain
Superfluous
in the light
Nearly all
prefer to blow it out
But they
find with night's onset
It is not
so easily rekindled
Jeer if you
like at my obsession with love
When dying
swine, you will all reach up
Desperate
trotters for the same pearl
