Poems For the Night 11

Ever wonder how the night feels
to be black
And stigmatized for the 
light she lacks
And seldom recognized 
for the light she gives back?

JUST ADORE THIS! GREAT! Fun! TWEAK: I want to naturally add an "s" to LACK as I'm reading. So it can remain singular, trying adding in the word "MAY". Light she may lack (now the singular requisite is satisfied). Add "s" to "give" in last line.
