once
the very thought
inconceivable
scattered sodium globes
procreating at an alarming speed
with spears holding up their giant vicious heads
greedily devouring the night's tender flesh
a constructed pattern of such voracious hunger
born of
Edison's remarkable brainchild
Darkness has never fully recovered
from such outrageous infringement
upon his half of the world's kingdom
Daylight snickers
at the boon
of man's arrogant new form of conquering
his environment
smiling brighter and brighter she forces man
to shut his well fed army of monsters eyes
until the following nights great feed begins yet again
STREETLIGHTS
the bane of existence to Darkness everywhere.......
