Passing from the night

As the sunlight washes in

Upon the yellow wall

all is bright, fine, and good

until the night sets in

then the people come out

the ugly in them

they look around, suspicious of me

i give them no reason to be

yet they are, even without basis

I can do nothing but laugh

so laugh i must

or where is the light?
