Companion poem for chapter 7 of the R.M. Dolin novel, "Trophic Cascade"
Read chapter
Darkness was never
really intended to be
part of the design
but without it
how else can you
appreciate light.
Evil lurks in all men's souls
and keeping it corralled
is our apex struggle.
With convincing clarity
there is salvaging
someone lost
once they become a part
of Diablo's design.
From the R.M. Dolin novel, “Trophic Cascade.” Padre sets up his halfway house for trafficking victims. Miguel threatens Jake with violence, but Dario intervenes.
