Notes About The Poem

Where there is light darkness cannot exist~ its not a thing, it lacks light- so what dwells in the dark? --Poet

On The Dark Side

                                          half lit half shadow
                                   the dark side cast by the earth~  *
                                               L   *
                               *            u

                                             *

Lol, sounds like Latin, the way you copy and pasted it~ The Moon does not shine with its own light, it simply reflects light coming from the Sun oh no there goes the magic!
