LIGHTBULB. Lightbulb; the moths flutter and beat themselves to death against an idea. A thought, vivid like glass, bright like tungsten- glows. I am reaching out to my mind again, my wings burned and burdened...Wait. I have lost track of my metaphors again... But then again, like the moths, I have lost track of many things- except for the unknown light in front of me.

Lightbulb.
LIGHTBULB. Lightbulb; the moths flutter and beat themselves to death against an idea. A thought, vivid like glass, bright like tungsten- glows. I am reaching out to my mind again, my wings burned and burdened...Wait. I have lost track of my metaphors again... But then again, like the moths, I have lost track of many things- except for the unknown light in front of me.
Basically, I don't know what I'm doing with my life.
