The Speed of Darkness

The radio mentioned a collection of poems entitled _The Speed of Darkness._ That led me to write an haiku on that subject. The haiku was a joke. But today the haiku became a series and the joke... not so funny, I think.

The Speed of Darkness
It's the same as that of Light
But going backward

Beware of darkness
That comes to you claiming it's
Not to be questioned

There is none so blind
As he who will only see
What he always has

There is none so blind
As he who will only see
What he wants to see

But going backward
It's the same as that of Light
The Speed of Darkness
