Look
Lights hurt now.
We made them too bright,
Too sharp through the night.
We squint and look down,
Bear each scowl and frown,
Just trying to see past,
Hoping the lights aren't fast.
Look at the dangers of cars
Beyond blinding us to the stars,
Making us look away from them
Even as we move between them.
We look for what doesn't sting,
Even just feet and knees moving,
Ignoring what speeds towards
Why sometimes the smart are cowards.
But try and look again
Keep yourself safe and sane,
No need to be run over outside
If we can darken the lights they ride.
