Blackout

After sitting in the dark for an hour and a half at work while the powers that be scrambled to get the power back on for the block, you get to thinking. Computers and phones have taken over our lives. Electricity is pretty handy. But hundreds of homeless don't live with it and neither do others in other countries.

And then you think about what really matters. Who and what really matters. What is man made? What is real?

And you think, that sometimes as the lights shine on, we are all really sitting in the dark.
