Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night / int_3d897748	comment	Do Not Go Gentle: The Trope Namer. The poem's main aesop encourages the reader to not succumb to despair even when facing that titular 'good night', and to keep going in the face of adversity. While death is inevitable, simply rolling over and accepting it won't do you any good, so it's best to keep yourself going and doing all you can until the very end.

Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night / int_575fd5e2	comment	Dark Is Not Evil: Even though the poem calls upon people to angrily resist the darkness that is death, it makes note that "wise men know the dark is right," and from the first line the night is described as "good".
