No Night There

There was no night there
brightness like conquered darkness
where their people had no choices

and complaints like waterfall

on the back of a duck

only complaints 

which were said and not heard


There was no night there

daylight without the sun

daylight seen in an enclosure 

where there was no night 

and their ugly voices

but their shouts

and their instructions …


There was no love there

broken hearts, dreams, loneliness

there was no dignity

only men, beast, slavery

a land of fadeless days

they will leave this light into the darkness

but will find that light within them till the end of days
