Empty and dark shall I raise my lantern

January 1, 2021 Nathan Maddigan

If this indeed be the hour in which I lift up my lantern, it is not my flame that shall burn therein. Empty and dark shall I raise my lantern, And the guardian of the night shall fill it with oil and he shall light it also.

Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet, 1923.
