Stupid, stupid, not so bright,
\nLeaving on the lights at night.
\nWhat masochistic fantasy
\nAbsolves my sin ‘gainst synergy?<\/p>\n
Killing dolphins in the sound
\nWith wasted oil clawed from the ground,
\nPower purposed to gladden lives
\nInstead spewed forth to darken skies.<\/p>\n
With every heedless step I make
\nScores of living beings break.
\nWith each unthinking breath I steal
\nA furry mammal’s share of weal.<\/p>\n
How to assuage the spirits gone
\nBecause I left the power on?
\nHow to berate myself enough
\nFor sqandering such precious stuff?<\/p>\n
No debt so small that I can pay,
\nNo sacrifice that I may make,
\nWhich ever can erase this day
\nThe thoughtless blight of my mistake.<\/p>\n
What hammer sufficient to strike the blow?
\nWhat words so vile to excoriate enow?
\nO let me stanch my primal force
\nSooner than blanch the wild water’s course.<\/p>\n
Crack my head upon a rock,
\nEncase my heart in concrete block,
\nBuried beneath lifeless sands
\nIn half-payment of life’s remands.<\/p>\n
Stupid, stupid, not so bright,
\nLeaving on the lights at night.
