It’s just past midnight, and I fall into a crouch in the middle of the living room. It’s dark, not by design But because I’ve failed three times to fix the **** light, And I’ve only just realized I bought the wrong bulbs. Such a small thing but I can’t convince myself to pull my hands from my eyes Because suddenly the light means so much more than it should All these things that aren’t what they’re supposed to be Where they’re supposed to be. Please come back and fix the light.
