Retrodictions, canto 3, quatrain 8



I click a switch - it flickers on
I turn the lamp - the bulb’s too bright;
outside my window, dark as dawn
the midnight streets have noonday light.



Commentary by Brother Quark:
They know of no difference between night and day.


Commentary by N. Hellerstein:
This is about electric lighting.
