Knives of light

Shall we cut this darkness
with knives of light,
shall we?

Shall we open up the dark
and show it to the world,
shall we?

This is the place of blood-red
dark that is the oyster cave.

This is the flesh that will not
give way to the force of right.

Shall we cut it with the knife,
shall we?

Open it,
bare it all,
the oozing agony,
shall we?

O come all ye to the darkness
with your flashing knives and
together, we shall open up the
dark and let the light decide.
