The voltage

Watts and voltage give the bulb brightness.
Intelligence and energy give man brightness.
The figure and the skin are the least factors.
With dim voltage no bulb would shine..

High Voltage

(well) you ask me bout the clothes I wear
And you ask me why I grow my hair
And you ask me why Im in a band
I dig doin one night stands
And you wanna see me do my thing
All you gotta do is plug me into high
I said high
High voltage rock n roll
High voltage rock n roll
High voltage, high voltage
High voltage rock n roll
Rock n roll
You ask me why I like to dance
And you ask me why I like to sing
And you ask me why I like to play
I got to get my kicks some way
And you ask me what Im all about
Come and let me hear you shout high
I said high
High voltage rock n roll
High voltage rock n roll
High voltage, high voltage
High voltage rock n roll
Rock n roll
I said high, I said high
Waaaah!
High voltage rock n roll
High voltage rock n roll
High voltage, high voltage
High voltage rock n roll
(mumble, mumble...)
Spotlight, put the lights out, happy hour!
High voltage rock n roll
High voltage rock n roll
Wine, women and song
High voltage, high voltage
Wine women and song
High voltage rock n roll

The obsession

A room is lit at night with
A bulb of a thousand watts,
A bulb of a hundred watts,
A zero watts and a candle.
Let them go off one by one
In that order and still
The room will be obsessed
With the moonlight leaking in.
It cannot be with peace
Because all lights went off.

I was changing a light bulb over Groucho Marx's bed, so I took my shoes off, got on his bed and changed the bulb. When I got off the bed he said: 'That's the best acting you've ever done.'

A Light Bulb To Light Our Dark World That I Wish Painted In Red And Black

yes, a light bulb to light our world
these dark worlds
outside and inside us
yes, a light bulb, a single light bulb
to brighten these dark worlds
inside and outside us


it is only the Great God
who can switch it on
who can switch it right.
and so, okay, okay, let there be light
from this single bulb
of my innocence

Let there be light forevermore.

To me, lighting really sets the mood for a room. A 40 watt bulb in a cheap lamp is the same as a 40 watt bulb in an expensive one.

A Euphoric Moment

The sun kisses my cheek; I squint at its brightness...
My feet are touching hot earth, yet it is my soul that's a blaze!
I take in what the sun has for me...So I shine as the sunrays dance in my stead.

I pause for a moment to give praise for the purposeful son; the brilliance of his light, it magnifies not over just a mere one, but to all who would seek him...the son illuminates.

The son kisses my cheek; I squint at his brightness...
My feet are touching hot earth and I am a blaze!
I take in what the son has for me....So I shine as never before!
I cannot be still, no one to dance in my stead.

The son illuminates and I am now fed.

When The Thin Filament Ceases

Like a light bulb that dims,
Those unconscious...
Are lost within.
And disconnected...
From their senses.
Like a light bulb that dims,
When the thin filament...
Ceases to burn and slowly ends.

The Available Are The Notable

In a hall, lit with a bulb and a lamp,
Moths smother the brightest.
The bulb off, moths go to the lamp.
Love catches the available

No two are alike

Let there be a couple of bulbs
Of the same watts emitting light.
The intensity is not same
If voltage, focus, enclosure
Or background differs. Likewise
Equally talented aren’t
Equally successful in life.

A bearing tree

On hearing her say she loved me,
I felt like a thousand watts bulb
When all she meant in saying it
Was that a bearing tree is sought.

Shield and sword

Each one is endowed with intelligence
and energy.
Intelligence abundant, one stays safe.
Energy abundant, one grows powerful.
One is a shield and the other, a sward.

Shine, Jesus, Shine

Lord the light or your love is shining,
In the midst of the darkness shining,
Jesus light of the world shine upon us,
Set us free by the truth you now bring us,
Shine on me. shine on me.
Shine jesus shine
Fill this land with the fathers glory
Blaze, spirit blaze,
Set our hearts on fire
Flow, river flow
Flood the nations with grace and mercy
Send forth your word
Lord and let there be light.
Lord I come to your awesome presence,
From the shadows into your radiance,
By the blood I may enter your brightness,
Search me, try me, consume all my darkness,
Shine on me. shine on me.
As we gaze on your kindly brightness.
So our faces display your likeness.
Ever changing from glory to glory,
Mirrored here may our lives tell your story.
Shine on me. shine on me.

Thank God

god, thanks for your love
i am not that cat
that so clumsily runs
across the road
without knowing danger
is around
or that rat that eats
from a trap
though it's so obviously a trap
or that chick
that so cheerfully picks rice
from the master's hand
without knowing
that is for it to grow big
to whet his own appetite
god, thanks for your love
for sharing with us
that minute portion
of your infinite intelligence
giving us a head over our shoulders
looks like it is too dynamic
too large a voltage for a little amplifier
humble amplifier
for us apes, poor apes
the world has since gone mad
since you shower your
intelligence on us
minute though it is
it is too dynamic
for us apes, poor apes
to keep tame
its power, overwhelming power
once exposed
almighty, almighty
a world turns awry
give us the other portion
to keep us tame
those sea of desires
that constantly raise tempests
in our heart and soul

And So The Table Is Set

i like the way she
puts the array of food
in utter simplicity
accented
by a single light
bulb

the one that
is not so bright
not so glaring
for
glare is the last
element
that we both
do not need

just one red rose
on a very slender
crystal clear
vase

just a bud
tight lipped
and a dew
sparkling
like a tear
on this
lonely night

just one pizza
mushroom
and mozzarella
and some
red slices
of tomatoes
and onions
the white
circular ones

like a little
universe
with the bulb
as sun
and the spices
as planets

and here we
are
holding on to
each other

like god and goddess
in the little
kingdom of our
simple affections

Emily Dickinson

Split the Lark—and you'll find the Music

861

Split the Lark—and you'll find the Music—
Bulb after Bulb, in Silver rolled—
Scantilly dealt to the Summer Morning
Saved for your Ear when Lutes be old.

Loose the Flood—you shall find it patent—
Gush after Gush, reserved for you—
Scarlet Experiment! Sceptic Thomas!
Now, do you doubt that your Bird was true?

For both reasons, owing to the thermal motion and to the working together of various wavelengths, factors arise which, in a similar manner to the structural factor, exert some influence upon the brightness of the interference points but not upon their location.

Tesla’s Dream

Wireless power to unite the earth
Tesla dreamt, power freely transmitted
all over the earth, picked up by a simple
receiver

Electrical energy beamed to large
cities – even ships at sea, power
broadcast in a dramatic financial
revolution

Shifting the power and status of
many nations on earth – all because
the earth is alive with electric
vibrations

Acting as a giant conductor of
electric signals – Tesla wrote of
Transmitting Electric Energy sans
Wires

In a world-wide power system
pumping energy into the earth
picked up by detectors: HOW is
unclear

Maybe using the voltage difference
between the earth and upper
atmosphere…
