Grains I See In the Darkness

Tuning off the lights everything is a dark veil of the color green.
I can only make out the pieces that I have memorized.

It's so fuzzy that I'm seeing grains like those on the old TV.
That I try to shape those grains into fuzzballs and puzzle pieces.

I imagine that when the light is off, I see another reality that shows.
It can only be shown in the dark. The light will not work on it.

And it comes even more alive when the deepest tint of green settles.
And you make out everything around you that was only seen in light.

It really is a time of the night. which I will see when it's not bright, and
try to focus on everything around me with my own eyes.
