I don't know, experiments

GET UNDER THERE 
I bellow at my stubborn light.
Grunting as I
lift the bushel, 
just barely,
struggling to stuff the beams
out of sight,
out    of   mind.

They won't see you under here,
I told it.

Hide the light, and wait
for a person with enough rigor
and aggression
to knock the barrel over.

But maybe I won't hold my breath--
at least not for too long.
everyone is
t  r  a  n  s  i  e  n  t,

and wants 
immediate
gratification.
