Outside the Light
Shadows cannot exist outside the light;
so dark projects the illusion of norm.
Ebony acquiesces to the night;
shadows cannot exist outside the light.
And yet, they're always there, just out of sight.
Only the light can give shadows their form;
shadows cannot exist outside the light,
so dark projects the illusion of norm.
