FORCED SACRIFICE


~FORCED SACRIFICE~
A Metaphoric poem


Insulated in a glass bulb,
resisting the flow of electrons,
the tungsten filament is
white hot emitting light.

So pleasant bright light
cutting the darkness,
making our lives bright
is a forced sacrifice.

The filament is forced
in burning white-hot
and giving us the light
until it is burnt out.
