Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer and Steve Law - Teach Me the Dark

Teach me the dark, the infinite
Shades of the infinite dark, the basis of all
The light that is, the origin, the ink bright spark
That leaps from the great black well
The darkling spring, the raven luck, the mother
From which the big bang sprang, the womb
Of dawn, the only cloak measureless enough
To hold everything, everything in its folds
Teach me the inner midnight
The moonless rooms, the lavish corners,
The mighty dark inside the fist, the vastness
Of limitless space that links
With no effort the everything that is
The everything that ever was, the everything
That will ever be. Teach me the song of soil
The song of deep winter, the pure dark song
Of the sea. All the dark that's been terrorized
By light, and all the dark that's been pushed away
And all the dark that's been feared
Teach me its valor, its ferocity, its kindness,
Its gentleness, Its blinding generosity
