come the daylight and the darkness goes
come the sunshine and the moon disappears
we see what we see in the light of day
we don't see what we see in the night,
time splits us in half each day of the year
and we dress ourselves behind the calendar,
children scurry off to school to learn what they
don't need to know and teachers get
paid for all their brainwashing skills...
nightly rumors are dismissed during the day
and praise for the light dies in the night,
we are curiously outnumbered in our thoughts
but have them anyway since there are no
mental abortions to be approved by congress,
branded by the interplay of light and dark
we sometimes choose white over black
when the oppositive is more appropriate,
and the laws tell us what to think and when
to think it so we do not get confused once
our eyesight has faded into obscurity.
