Thinking

Thinking, thinking, trying to find focus in the fading light. Ideas like will-o-wisps dance away from me in the twilight. Dancing, dancing, away, flitting just outside of reach into the darkness.
Darkness, darkness where true thought ceases to exist. The darkness of ignorance that consumes thoughts and minds. It waits for all of us, just outside our waking vision, setting a thousand snares; falsehoods, half-truths, prejudices, fears, God… even real truths can ensnare… they can cause us to lose sight of what is most important.
When love, mercy and justice are pushed from the heart and mind; the trap has sprung shut.
