Brilliance


You are a florescent bulb

And the world is a room

It is not a dark room

But it is dark to you

 

You must find a socket

Discover the grooves

And take the twisting the world has done to you

Illuminate the present with the power of the past

 

I believe that with the flip of a switch

Your future is bright
