A Flicker in the Dark

A flicker in the dark Or just a tiny spark Can start a flame inside of you That will make its mark. This mark will keep you burning And help to keep you yearning To know the reason you were born. That reason is for learning. Why else would we dare enter? A place that at its center Is filled with too much sorrow in its core. Thus, I am a dissenter. I reject mainstream philosophy And the principles of theocracy. My ruler has always been my brain. Which never brings hypocrisy.
