DIMMING LIGHTS

D I M M I N G   L I G H T S

When I honestly try

to connect with The Light

from my loving Higher Power

whom I now call Divinity,

my prayer provides me

with a day immersed with

proper direction, meaning and purpose.

When I choose to ignore connecting

with His Light, does a Darkness feel

this lack of Light as

a cold, cold invitation?

Could it be possible

I let The Darkness in whenever

I do choose too sin?

Is a Darkness systematically beginning to

forcibly enter each of the rooms

of my somewhat well lit home

by ways of an unwarranted invasion?

Is a Darkness carelessly pillaging headstrong

with a certain and destructive agenda

to bust down the doors of

my sacred rooms which

it can not call its own?

Does a Darkness promptly proceed

some seemingly unfounded

dastardly duties of

shutting off each light

I've managed to turn on

one by one by one?

Is this Darkness acting childish, once again?

My solution is to invite His Light,

where Darkness cannot exist.

Time for repentance, once again, once more.

For this is what the battle is for.

Darkness flees quickly, for His light means death to it.

Darkness seeks solace in dark, dark shadows,

dark caverns running deep and wide

in remote recesses where

filthy and sultry secrets can be kept.

Fearing only exposure to Light.

Its dark out there

without prayer.

Vigilant prayer is The Way.

The Darkness is always

looking for some way in.

Keep guard at all of the portals.

Keep guard all day and night.

Discover all The Darkness and

Gently bring it into The Light.
