100 Watts

100 watts shone bright all summer long on the porch. It was extremely seductive to moths, bugs of all kinds and insects of the night. Very many of them lost their lives in an attempt to embrace it, perhaps believing it was God, but it wasn’t its fault. 100 watts shone every time the switch was turned on, when not, perhaps it dreamed of being a lightning bug with a luminous stomach. The only time it failed to spark was ungraciously discarded.

However, its memories are preserved inside this porcelain vessel.
