Notes About The Poem

Light Versus Dark

Light and dark;
               polar opposites,
              constantly at war
               with each other.

        Light(truth) vs. Dark(lies)
      Light(hope) vs. Dark(despair)
      Light(angel) vs. Dark(demon)
 Light(optimism) vs. Dark(pessimism)

      It goes without saying: light is...
        obviously the easier choice,
        and it comes out victorious
               every single time.

I would say light is the easier choice for the wise man who doesn't shy away from illumination and being exposed ... while darkness is the more attractive option for fools who whisper to its temptations. It looks like you know the truth of the matter, here.

"darkness is the more attractive option for fools who whisper to its temptations." Ain't that the truth! Thanks for dropping by, Tim:-)
