The summer sun at certain hours of the day angles its shine into the ample windows of this house, The blackout is unavoidable during these heavy heated months in which we find ourselves, The power outage often keeps all the lamps on at night while none of them can show light, The brightness in the room is a byproduct of guided mirrors trailing from my next door neighbor's house, The built-in generator they own often satisfies the home's residents no matter the time, weather, or otherwise, The reflections from across the way align throughout the living room and up the stairs of my house I hold out in, The recreation of light here can be far more than recreational for my other neighbor's mirror systems.

Stealing Light in Darkness
The summer sun at certain hours of the day angles its shine into the ample windows of this house, The blackout is unavoidable during these heavy heated months in which we find ourselves, The power outage often keeps all the lamps on at night while none of them can show light, The brightness in the room is a byproduct of guided mirrors trailing from my next door neighbor's house, The built-in generator they own often satisfies the home's residents no matter the time, weather, or otherwise, The reflections from across the way align throughout the living room and up the stairs of my house I hold out in, The recreation of light here can be far more than recreational for my other neighbor's mirror systems.
