in the light

pretend you have two options

there's death and his band of outcasts
riding steely hogs and yelling into the night

and then there're
gentle lambs on their best behavior
the farmer is hungry
he will always be hungry

or you could
find refuge in the lesser known places
the ever closing gap of a lover's folds
twilight in spring on the eastern side
of newly blossomed apple tree

there are better places to be than in the light
