“You can’t study the darkness by flooding it with light.” Edward Abbey
Darkness Have you known those deep ecstasies having ventured into that impenetrable darkness which shines its light for a path beyond the stolid middle towards the wild, beckoning, fringes of everything where the rays of darkness illumine mystery's sweet reversal, vesting you in raiment of understanding that has no possible words only sighs? ©Paul Vincent Cannon

Paul, a lovely reflective poem. The phrase “rays of darkness” challenges us to “see” a world beyond our ordinary vision. ❤ All the best! Cheryl

This is an exciting poem, the idea of dwelling, seeing in darkness. We avoid darkness, but it’s the only way to experience life to the fullest.

Absolutely Sascha, that is how I see it too, the layers of darkness, in us in the world, in nature are all purposeful, so that dark becomes useful like light.
