Ultima Weapon Posted February 8, 2013 #1 Share Posted February 8, 2013 It flew in from nothingness So it would appear. I know not it's genesis But it's existance I knew. The black buzzing that scurried in the light Was it in the light or near it? It fell appearing to rise Eclipsing the three. The light struck it's side It was black from the start. Even blackness so small casts a shadow The likes of which shown three. On both sides was darkness On both sides were light. Looking to lights remnant Darkness covered nearly all. Twas merely the three of shadow Gray reflection of black. Intimidation found in reflections Both darkness and light. Three reflection in darkness One reflection in light. The darkness overcomes all The light commanded by darkness direct. Though when gazing upon the source That which casts the shadow. The black was but one The light overcame as three. The black scurried away Light came into such being. Though light appear as one Behind the eclipse there is three. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarakore Posted February 8, 2013 #2 Share Posted February 8, 2013 "Gazing upon the source" is an interesting deus ex machina. The battle was interesting. Are the stages of the battle in reference to humanity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Weapon Posted February 9, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Are the stages of the battle in reference to humanity? I got the concept from a fly that darted a few times in front of a 3 peice light fixture. Happened in less than a second. However I thought it could bring about an interesting metaphor. So take what ya want from it, reference to humanity, or reference to a fly on the wall. Your choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarakore Posted February 9, 2013 #4 Share Posted February 9, 2013 True art inspired by the normal, fantastic reality we all share but seldom just stop and stare at or into. I read it again and it was even better seeing the fly fly. Hopefully something else inspires you soon so we can read later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
