The darkness is the best area for progress.
Progress from light or into dark ecstasy.
The point of life moves a liquid level back and forth.
Forth into light back into dark abyss.
My faith plays the bubble and the yellow fluid my choices.
Choices I have made and choice I must make mixed together.
Mixed so well they look identical and I can choose the right or wrong.
Whether right or wrong I frequent the liquid because I am within a container.
Dark moments hold all of the above in on instance but not always.
Unless the darkness follows me into my subconscious states.
These time keep me in deep and becoming a slave to the black system.
I faulter under the weight of awakening to find the same state.
The dark moments seem so long and an end can be unreachable.
But a moment is a moment and the darkness determines the length.
I have been in the moment for years.
My help is the moment and the darkness is life.

Both judge and jury, this was to be a solitary show
Questions of what
Fade To Dark
Anger courses through my veins
And burns on the surface of my skin.
Visible to all it must surely be,
Held
