#snuffed
Light cannot and does not know who lit it or snuffed it out
Neither does it know if its light was used for good or evil
For shameless evil is more believed when seen by the blind
Whereas good hide in dark searched for by the sighted
No glory to be lit or snuffed, foolish to boast or despair
But in peace assured: grace suffices whether you burn or not
And there's no dark in good, and light's to judge the blind

I was used for heat
Candle lit for awhile
Snuffed out with a pinch

those who believed
and Those who misled
lie together at last
in the same narrow bed
and if god loved Them more
for Their strange lack of doubt,
he kept it well hidden
till he snuffed Them out.

a convulsive shaking of the head
a tremble ;
it's no trouble
and i've slipped this disarray
shrugged off the character ;
an avatar i've maintained
for a dedicated period
a return to The Cunning
quake the sleeper agent
and unburden the actor
a return to Cunning
the weight is clipped
and the pouch rises to the surface
geesing the code
the dog program :
click the assignment
into a bleedable port
quake the sleeper
and unburden the act
charge up joy for the task ahead
start cleaning the toys of the trade
re load the literature
retrain your physical form ;
blessed with muscular memory
and a breathing plan
the domestic ailments of the house
are striped and packed into the guest bedroom
the body hair is shaved to minimum
the workplace is given a sick call
then all the tech is despoiled
and the signal singed out
no more Mr. civilian
snuffed
the soldier
with unmarred purpose
is gratefully reattached to physical function
and mental manner
the soldier makes channels of the streets
tags favoured places
****** in relished corners
puts out an advertisement
a secretion
seeking to rejoin his staff
of instigation
