Notes About The Poem

Dark Is the Art

(not a nice poem... )

Dark is the Art

Lies. 
Evil made up, 
hiding in plain site…

Judgments made, 
of others, 
that can not see, 
the color
of their own robes. 

It is easy. 
No glasses, 
No special view, 
or mirror effect…

Lies. 
Evil made up, 
hiding in plain site…. 

You stole the innocence 
of a daughter you were to father. 
of a son, that would take your name.
You stole the trust of all, 
those around you. 
You betrayed the reason, 
for your marriage, 
by incorporating shadow, 
into light. 

The outcome…
never pure!

Lies. 
Evil made up, 
hiding in plain site…

Recently friends went through a rough time. At the end they were great and life is okay. But lots was learned from those that said things, they should not have... Now nice faces, have new meanings they never had...before. So sad. Hugs friend. Great day to you. Ann
