Darkness Wings

Light’s dominance is futility against darkness’ nobility

In the before, there was
elegant, panther-like,
darkness.

Charcoal wingtips fluttering,
hushed velvet, hovering,
phoenix-like, undeniable,
darkness.

Ultra-black warrior,
emancipating shadows,
spicy, poetic,
spiritual.

Pitch me
into darkness whole,
antique-black, rich-black,
before.

Never-ending, tar-dipped cloak,
arousing, succulent,
black eye appeasing,
darkness.

Night mare’s onyx eyes,
powerful, liberating, jet-black,
lullaby.
