A Dark Side Cosmic Expansion Exonerated

She asked
if I had
a dark side.

Most of my life
has been lived
on the dark side.

But I have
always
believed in
sublime power

cosmic beauty
permeating
awe-inspiring
solar energy

radiant
vibrant stellar
life
giving light.

She asked
if I had
a dark side.

Most of my life
has been lived
on the dark side.

Yet my heart
and soul were
no conduct part
of madness

the blackness
the void
except as
reluctant captive

resisting
the entombing
life depleting
molasses dark side.
