We Cry That It Is Dark

"It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry that it is dark."
--Swami Vivekananda

We put our hands before our eyes
and cry that it is dark
as if we were surprised.
We put our hands before our eyes
until we realize--
until we learn to hark--
we put our hands before our eyes
and listen in the dark.
