Halogen Lamps

See
darkness
like your friend.
Don’t
fear or fight,
instead
love.

When
the lamps
come in too,
smile,
do not frown
make friends
too.

We
all were
conceived at
night.
So we are
all night
sons.

As
you dance
with spirits,
gods,
forget not
who you
are.

When
mother
lights her lamp,
don’t
run away
from the
light,

Bring
balance
instead. Call
them
both; darkness
and light.
Lamps.
