The light, forever bright.
When I saw the light kill the dark night,
“Darker and darker!” it shouted...
The light was stronger, no doubt about it.
The rays of the sun shot like a machine gun.
Darkness began to bleed.
The sun was still confident indeed.
Away it fled,
The darkness sped,
The sun’s victory made history.
