The Dark of Man


Of all the great thingsI wish could be changedThe greatest of allIs the dark of man
Within each manDarkness liesTo desecrateHis brighter side
This darkness breeds fearAnd violence and hateDestruction and deathDoth lie in his wake
To remove thisO great my joyTo know that allMay no sleep safe
