The street lights are white now.
They always used to be yellow.
I can’t stand that eerie glow.
I miss their soft warm hue.
Now everything is glowing blue.
Or blinking red, or blinding white.
It’s hard for my eyes to adjust to.
They’ve sold us such terrible light.
Everything’s gotten far too bright.
But what’s a candle-lover to do?
I used to watch the stars at night.
I guess they replaced those too.
