Untitled #266 / Hang a Lantern On Your Problem
“Hang a lantern on your problem”
Ah! What once lurked beneath in shadowy depths
now climbs to the surface, blinding sight and all senses!
Rather than live with this demon
I will knock down this lantern,
and let the flames consume my misery
until ashes return
