When thunder and lightning rule up above,
and the household lights suddenly zap out,
one may experience a new freedom
from the defective electrical grid
that regulates one’s daily perceptions.
To breathe free like a primitive human
is a most refreshing experience.

Since I was no longer a lowly slave
to the electrical establishment,
I wandered about, gazing at flowers
along the roadside and in my backyard.

Without electricity, one can nap
at will or explore your memory storehouse
and enjoy the freedom of being you!
