The Lancean Specificity
Between the Dark
Bedtime comes for some of us unready
Darkness falls but dark has come already
So in the dark on dark we may not see
Though darkness falls we are still who will be
Tomorrow when the sun comes up again
In spite of ourselves because we are we
The people sorely tried who loved and lost
All then for all when all is what it cost
In losing us for us winning to be
The rest of the best of us finally
Through the certainty of our uncertainty
We will be there in the stillness between
The dark and the dark in the spark where we mean
What for some has become eternity
