Shadow Goddess
My lantern shines darkness.
I come in a time of glaring transparency
to bring you shadow.
I walk your paths of visibility,
building dark walls and alcoves.
Hate me, for you are human, after all, and children,
still resistant to wisdom.
Hate me and I will understand.
You have illuminated your lives
with microscopes and brutal honesty.
I will cut the shine with blood and secrets.
Sweet children, I hear you cry
for the knowledge you want.
I come to give the mystery
you need.
I come in a time of glaring transparency
to bring you shadow.
I walk your paths of visibility,
building dark walls and alcoves.
Hate me, for you are human, after all, and children,
still resistant to wisdom.
Hate me and I will understand.
You have illuminated your lives
with microscopes and brutal honesty.
I will cut the shine with blood and secrets.
Sweet children, I hear you cry
for the knowledge you want.
I come to give the mystery
you need.
