A selfish rant
“Compact Fluorescent Lamps” they’re called,
or CFLs, but I’m appalled
that incandescent bulbs are ‘out’;
they’re still the best, without a doubt.
I stock-pile when I see them now,
which isn’t often, sadly. How
did we get stuck with candle-power
from bulbs which seem to take an hour
before they reach the proper wattage?
I don’t live in a dingy cottage!
I have large rooms, high ceilings, and
I simply cannot bloody stand
those stupid shapes, those bulbs so dim
they make my home look really grim.
Bring back my proper bulbs – and light! –
I’m incandescent every night.
