• Affording no illumination
• Awaiting ignition
• Blacked out
• Dark
• Dark probably
• Dark, as a passageway
• Dark, as a room
• Dark, as some streets
• Darkened
• Darker than dim
• Dim
• Dim, in a way
• In a dark state
• In need of a torch
• In the dark
• In the shadows
• Kept in the dark
• Like a broken burner
• Like a burned-out bulb
• Like a candy cigar
• Like a dark room
• Like a darkened room
• Like a decorative candle, perhaps
• Like a new candle
• Like a new cigarette
• Like a nonsmoking cigarette
• Like a pitch-black room
• Like Camels in a pack
• Like catacombs, usually
• Like certain matches
• Like cigarettes in elevators, usually
• Like dungeons
• Like fresh matches
• Like new matches
• Like rooms not in use, often
• Like some candles
• Like some hallways
• Like some pilots in summer
• Like some scary alleys
• Like the inside of a closed refrigerator
• Like the inside of a coffin
• Like Wrigley Field until 1988
• Needing a match
• Never touched with a match
• Not aflame
• Not burning
• Not burning yet
• Not fired
• Not ignited
• Not illuminated
• Not kindled, as a fire
• Not matched up?
• Not turned on
• Not yet burning
• Not yet glowing, as a candle
• Not yet ignited
• Off
• Off, in a way
• Out, as a candle
• Pitch black
• Pitch-dark
• Rayless
• Shadowy, say
• Sober?
• Still to be burned
• Switched off
• Totally dark
• Turned off
• Until a lamp goes on, it's this
• Yet to be ignited
