Sonnet 100 by Lord Brooke Fulke Greville

"It was a dark and stormy night..." This poem by Lord Brooke Fulke Greville (3 October 1554 – 30 September 1628) speaks of the darkness that sometimes can be found within oneself. It's also serves well as a gloomy Halloween poem.

Sonnet 100

In night when colors all to black are cast,
Distinction lost, or gone down with the light;
The eye a watch to inward senses placed,
Not seeing, yet still having powers of sight,

Gives vain alarums to the inward sense,
Where fear stirred up with witty tyranny,
Confounds all powers, and thorough self-offense,
Doth forge and raise impossibility:

Such as in thick depriving darknesses,
Proper reflections of the error be,
And images of self-confusednesses,
Which hurt imaginations only see;

And from this nothing seen, tells news of devils,
Which but expressions be of inward evils.
