Course of Nature


 

Eyes are not meant to view darkness

Lamps, lights, fire, flashlight, candles

Illuminate what fragile eyes cannot handle

Ignorance in over use of the many senses,

 

Yet conscience misuse of said instances

Alights the flaws in the ignorant mantle

Crumbling along its fault in to shambles

But light is gone and the eye sub-misses,

 

Strength in the unknown is in few

Natural restrictions give natural gain

Power is yet again not in void session,

 

Behind weakness arises changing new

Eyes that see without seeing vain

Leaving behind once blessed into submission.
