A night black and soft like velvet, immovable and unyielding. A man stands in solitude beneath the stars, unable to match their luster with the bleakness of his own feeble day to day existence. He lights the flare in his hand, feeling it burst into the sky and cascade in brilliant flames, lifting the veil of darkness from the world. BURN, GODDAMNIT BURN! For an instant, he could change the world. Until the next instant, when darkness ruled again.
