Sometimes
It takes
The elimination
Of all ambient light
Of all manufactured illumination
The total dissolution of conditional hope
To expose the one candle in the room
That can never be extinguished.

Very good. I wrote a piece many years ago about a spark that needed all the stars to go out before it could be seen. Yes, enjoyed this one.
