Halogen Lamps

Faced
With this
Filament
tied
to expose
or hide
night

I
open,
envelop
a
halogen
of fine
gas.

A
mixture,
iodine
trapped
in a bulb
to be
lit

A
texture
of bromine
sealed
in a lamp
would be
heat

Do
guide me
as i walk
in
to places
i know
not.

I
will work
one more time
to
be lucent
like a
lamp.
