A single flame
In misted glass
Stood before
A vast sea of dark
This marauding darkness
Was a black beast
Searching for flesh
On which it could feast
But that meagre flame
Became a valiant dagger
Piercing the beast
And killing its power
And the little flame danced
In the fading night
As it watched the beast
Retreat in awe of its might
Dawn & Dusk
