going dark

when the bulb expires
making a soft
explosion within itself,
going black
making the room dark,
you sit there for a moment
and ponder
this new state of affairs.
you could feel your way
to the shelf
where the new bulbs lie.
you could turn
on a light to help you
across the room,
but you sit there
and wonder if there's
a reason for this sudden
darkness. is the world
trying to tell you 
something new?
