Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer and Steve Law - To Face the Dark

To face the dark
To face the dark
One does not need a light
Nor does one need a watch
A feather, a melody, a sword, a pen
One doesn't even need a friend
To face the dark
One needs only to face the dark
There is something easier then
About the facing, when we know
We need no preparation
Nothing is asked of us except
The willingness to face the dark
The willingness to pause
In that moment when we
Cannot see, cannot know
Cannot float on the sea of habit
Cannot fly on the feathers of routine
But already, I've taken this too far
It's so simple, the invitation
That it's easy to miss what is asked
Not a journey. Not even a step
Just the chance to face the dark
To meet yourself in that facing
And to notice what being erased
And what's doing the erasing
