The grand spotlights search for God.

************************************************************************

Fluorescent tubes suffer from epilepsy.

************************************************************************

When the cicada shuts up suddenly, there seems to have been an electrical breakdown.

************************************************************************

Light bulbs know how to quiet their lights.

************************************************************************

The streetlights of the city night turn into spotlights with their mustaches of light and their humid reflections.

************************************************************************

The electric lamps die of fright.

************************************************************************

The electric light killed all the gas butterflies.
