Haiku 3.16.15
The power was out at our house for 3-4 hours last night, starting at dusk. Even our cell internet connection was affected. We sat and read together and it was enjoyable. But it was a reminder of how completely dependent we are on technology, and how that even impacts our relationships.
What Now?
A power outage
Darkness. No lights. No Wi-Fi
Candles lit the room

Together
The power went out
We sat together and read
Candlelight glowing

Memory
Ancient people lived
Without electricity
But we forgot how
-mtroupe 2015
Design
Without light, dusk brings
An end to the work of Day
Now rest, talk, and sleep
-mtroupe 2015
