Brief Crack of Light Got In

If you break
Easily,
You’re not sure

What to make
Of lyrics
That sing breaks

Are for light
Between dark
Eras or

To let light
In the dark.
Why not write

Cracks are breaks
In changing,
Fragile things,

Rocks, bones, glass,
Shells, forts, walls?
And the light

And the dark
Just make shades
Of them all.
