Like a Beetle to a Light Bulb
Location
Today my light bulb blew.
I went to change it and touched the hot glass,
My fingers singed and turned a slight brown,
But the ladybugs crawled along so easily.
As I unscrewed the lighting more insects came.
And i grew disgusted with the small creatures.
How can they live in a place I could not touch?
When all was done iIflicked the lightswitch on,
And reapplied the glass frame.
I saw the countless dead bugs laying inside,
Overlooked in the darkness before the light.
Instead of dumping the shells out
I left them.
