The problem with writing poetry in the dark, is that it is like life.

You can only guess at what mark you are making and whether it makes any sense. And even when you are finished you probably cannot see the whole thing.

Like life, you grope for meaning and to create something. But you cannot see what you are doing.

And should you actual see it - it probably is a big mess of condictions.

very deep indeed - too deep for me, I fear. Perhaps we should buy you a book light.
