The Dark

Mike Berger, Ph.D.

No, no, no! Light bulbs don’t glow;
in reality, they suck up dark.
Spinning electrical generators
don’t produce a watt of electricity.
They vacuum up dark.
Dark is made of particles.
Of course, they are called Darkons.
They have no charge or mass
but process gravity and spin.
They are big; really really big.
They are bigger than the Higgs,
the illusive God particle.
No man constructed collider
can capture the total dark.
It has strange and bizarre properties.
The human eye can’t see a thing
peering into a room full of dark.
Utilities companies deceive us
stealing away the dark.
They store it in the old coal mines.
When they’ve gathered it all up
you and I will plead for dark, and then
we can buy it for an exorbitant price.
