Said the Darkness

Said the darkness to the light
as she waved him aside
You are too hot on this arid day
Go ... go find some place to hide
and the little flame waivered
and crept further from sight

Said the darkness to the light
as she sheilded her eyes
Dim or extinguish,
Your brightness, I dispise
and the little torch flickered
and faded into the night

Said the darkness to the shadow
I'm cold and oh so lonely
She grabbed a smoke and looked around
I'd offer you a toke if only
I could find a light

Cinder and Ash

I don't think I've lost my faith in humanity. I don't think I'd ever invested in it. I am removed from it, perhaps in the splicing of DNA, perhaps along the path to this moment. It may have been the precise moment it was explained to me that I am not human or not considered worthy to be by the members of such a prestigious club.
I watch them in their busy world, with their busy all importances as if watching flies gather on fetid meat. They buzz. They swarm. All without knowing the reason for their existance though always seeking validation in it.
I watch them with gelid reticence and coat them with a hoary ambiguosity.
No poking, prodding or even shaking will stir the components together as a mix of emotion for them.
Thus far not one have I found worthy.
I hear the cries and feel nothing. I am removed from it.
