lights flicker, flutter, flash, fail
blackout [loud silence]
candles lit: chase away creeping darkness
but, always creeps back

blackout [loud silence]
cold numbs: fire melts
lanterns move-from-room to room
shifting shadow: grasping at smoke
no time- night stretches limbs
cold clouded sun. no solace
