VIOLENCE OF LIGHT

Million, billion stars
Scars of the darkest nights
When not invisible behind
The moon bright & white
Unrelenting at death even 
Hell, the shadow of heaven,
where fire brightest burn?

Cacophony of life
In the womb lie deathly
Of the night
Until the sun silently
detonates the light 
Freeing the violence of existence
Destruction, you owe the dawn?

Survival of the fittest, creation
Fire, knowledge, religion
Science & civilisation
Control, light, sin, war & annihilation
In the conquest of fear, inquest of the dark
Interrogate the beginning
Why the end?
