I'm awake. Idiot box illuminates. A dying tree dressed in holiday garb. Shines bright with a crooked star on top. I go to bed. Not before I follow a safe visible path. I wake up at night to use the restroom. I need guidance. I'm rudely awakened in the morning. Beams of solar energy piercing through cheap shades. I drive home from work at night. Switches on my truck panel help me reach my destination. I need this flame, so hot, To enjoy my overpriced cigar. To cook my food. I often wonder where would we be without it. Do you remember light before you were born? Will there be light when you die?
