Shades of green
And the depths of darkness,
one and the same.
So many shades of green,
One darker than the other
Until it’s a ‘darkish green’,
Something that is
Almost “not green”;
but something else.
So many depths of darkness,
One deeper than the other
Until it’s so dark,
You won’t be able to see
Your stretched hand,
Something that is
Almost “not darkness”;
but something else.
