An Anomaly

He's effortlessly effervescent for someone
surrounded by so much darkness
His luminescence envelopes shadows 
rendering shade nonexistent 
Illumination comes with a price so examine
the method to his Harkness
360 is a wholesome number so both sides
really offer assistance
They say brilliance is borderline madness but
I say they're scared of the epiphany 
A litany of excuses exists in spades blocking
the shine of bright ideas
It's over their heads like clouds of ice crystals
waiting to drop precipitously 
The sun & moon are light of different kinds but
are conceived from the same idea
