True Enlightenment
February 27, 2012
True Enlightenment
At daybreak the nocturnals recede
The diurnals emerge hesitantly
The dense atmosphere
Suffocating
A heavy path left behind by the lurking ones
The angels’ song begins to flow through the lovely ones’ ears
Courage thrusts itself upon them
The dreadful trail is incinerated
All have been enlightened
