There is no light Where depths consume. * * * Twist and turn, Spark and burn; Every good thing Is mine to spurn Like I am king! Like I could cling To fickle flames, The hope they bring, With enough acclaim To fend off the shame Of being the one Who cheats the game. * * * On purpose I hide, Too scared to see.

I think that more than anything, I am responding to the rhythm of this poem. Such a good one.

Do you mean the Latin phrase for the title. Though, pater would suggest father?
