Crystal gleaming, blinding sight, I crawl, small seeming, though tall, I tried. So hard to stand in dark evolution, the solution claimed as stark; Yeah right. I need a change under the sun, But forest ranger is my part. So only night, lit by lamplight Conceives revolution in this Dark. What choice do I have? Which paths to take? Green stained machetes Dictate the stakes. Long for the sun, And long, we may, Alas, Must do with a lamplit day.

A Lamp in the Night
Crystal gleaming, blinding sight, I crawl, small seeming, though tall, I tried. So hard to stand in dark evolution, the solution claimed as stark; Yeah right. I need a change under the sun, But forest ranger is my part. So only night, lit by lamplight Conceives revolution in this Dark. What choice do I have? Which paths to take? Green stained machetes Dictate the stakes. Long for the sun, And long, we may, Alas, Must do with a lamplit day.
