Click On The Lightbulb

Click on the lightbulb,
The light in the dark,
Seeing past all your troubles,
Lending you on your way.

Click on the lightbulb,
And see the world as it truly is,
All so bright and beautiful,
Wildlife and humans live in harmony...

Or maybe not?
Maybe you have to squint to see it that way?

Click on the lightbulb,
And see the world as it truly is,
All so dark and ugly,
Wildlife and humans live a life of fights,
Survival of the fittest.

Or maybe not?
Maybe you have to think to see it that way?

Either way turn on the lightbulb in the darkness today...
