7 haiku on the light and dark
A single matchstick
is all it takes to brighten
the chaotic dark;
but it takes nothing
for the darkness to feed on
and consume our fear.
°•°
In all of our eyes
is a tiny bit of light,
big enough to see.
In all of our eyes
the pupil's darkness is void:
central to all light.
•°•
Man created fire,
and he brought light to the earth
to fill night's darkness.
The man who knows fire
gains a fear of the unknown:
the dark he forgets.
°•°
There is no darkness
without light. To see darkness
you must have sight: light.
