The lamp

How much of the lamp is the light?

The post

The reflector

The element

The filament

The glass

The aurora

The halo spikes beyond the source

The waves of bright cast out

How much of the lamp is the light?

And what of it entered into my eyes?

What of it projected from mine?

All of it – down to the wire in the grid and the compressed oil-i-fied algae from millennia prior.
