  1. Why is it that the bulbs never fit? P45t, H1, H4, H7, it seems that everyone decides to make a new standard instead of fixing the old one. Bah.

  3. The light bulb flashed on and off. Matt was yelling at his mom. “You never understand! I hate you!” She just sat there and stared with a smug look as tears streamed down his face. She would never understand. She could never understand. Sometimes he wished she would just leave. She would kiss and tell him she loves him,, expecting him to just forgive and forget all of a sudden.

  4. I planted the bulb beneath the earth. I knew the lovely flowers would bloom in the spring. Bringing with them brilliant colors and hope for the future.

  5. a bulb of a plant or a light bulb? i can’t decide which. One made of glass and electric trinkets, and the other earth fibers, or rather, plant fibers. One emits beauty, the other light. One is bright and transparent. The other thick with opaque nature.

  9. light bulbs are a symbol of the new green movement, a lot of people think this problem can be fixed simply by switching their light bulbs and doing similar, feel good things. but real change won’t be big enough even if every single American suddenly changed the fluorescents and recycled all the time. We need corporations to make these changes, change their work practices and their view of the earth we leave for future generations.

  11. The bulbous flower hang drearily with one sad leaf aloof on its stem. As it lay I could help but not stare ever slightly while thinking of what it’s actions to deserve such a fate could have been. What had it done to deserve such an ending fate.

  12. light bulbs illuminate the world. it’s interesting that one person can invent something that changes the world in a way such as the light bulb. it lights the dark, enlightens the path that once was unseen. and at the same time, it’s a mere invention of man. fallible. breakable. completely at the disposable use of that who created it.

  13. light bulb, a onion bulb, a plant bulb. A bulbous nose. Bilbo Baggins. Hmmm, my dog was playing with a light bulb Wendy’s toy. the end

  14. The light exploded as I flicked the switch.
    Damn! I thought as I wandered if I had another light bulb in the cupboard.

  15. I don´t quite accually know what means because English is not my vernacular language, but I guess that’s something about the brain or either about flowers but either way everything is conected.

  16. Wake me up so I can tell you about the time my eyes stopped working, as if someone had buried them while I slept, and when the dawn fell through the window I looked up and saw a burnt-out bulb, like a primordial iris, bluepurpleblack, and then I closed my eyes.

  17. My thoughts keep racing.
    I do not want to blurt it out.
    I want it to be memorable.
    I want that light bulb moment,
    and know that everything will be alright.

    Let me be free.

  18. And then I thought, why would he do that? Was he hungry? Why didn’t he just ask me for food. What a trouble maker. Now he walks around with muddy footprints. He dug the garden and ate the bulbs. No roses this year.

  19. I love garlic. Everything tastes better with it, maybe apart from cakes… One day I’ll own a garlic farm. That’ll be splendid times.

  20. She turned, her hair whipping around. The filckering brought back all those memories. Why had it happened. Flicker. Flicker.
    As the light bulb was reflected in her eyes.

  23. The light turned on. Sam looked up at the sudden harsh light, and rubbed his eyes.

    He was disconcerted, alone, and confused.

    Then he remembered everything.

    And suddenly, he wished the light had stayed off. He yearned for the pitch black darkness of before.

    Because he knew what he was.

  24. this one does not intrigue me, for this bulb has already been burned out. My idea for this came, 50 seconds ago when I first hit go. So why does the same word come again? Disappointed I write, because I know I need to. I need more inspiration, I need more single words.

  25. my imagination is lighting up as i listen to music written by the one i love, to words i wrote, to music he played. i rest and know that he loves me, and know that i will never be alone. i have never cared for anyone the way i care for him.

  26. was planted in the ground. It blossomed into a young man, who realized that the metaphor for his life was stereotypically feminine. He had to reconstruct the masculine ways of the world to find a way to fit in, like a left out jig saw puzzle put in the wrong box. He was okay with this predicament, because he liked being more completely human than being one gender.

  27. I’m sick of the light bulbs in my room. They’re too bright. and when i flip the switch, one turns on faster than the other. I much prefer bulbs in plant form. Really, what the hell am I supposed to say about bulbs? I like lights from afar but when i’m immersed in the dark. it’s prettier that way

  28. oval elongated emitting light or planted deep in the groud to sprout in the spring emitting beauty. Both good, both fufilling a need: practical and for the soul.

  29. My mother plants tulip bulbs every fall. The ground is stiff from the cooling temperatures but with her trowel she digs several tidy holes in a row under the eve of the porch. Then she waits until spring.

  32. Bulb. Bulbasaur. Pokemon, anyone? Rules.
    Light bulbs are underrated. Do you realize how much Americand take advantages of light bulbs, or electricity in general? Pretty selfish and depressing of us. Whatever, back to Bulbasaur. He is probably the coolest of the water pokemon. I admire his pizazz.

  34. ideaas and to think. I wish I didn’t have to try so hard. but my fingures are moving, typing, living, learning. bring some more words to me, for more ideas, light and sound. energy is what i ned to stay stimulated. my heart stimulated. believe and grow. these are the things I think about doing.

  35. i already wrote about the word bulb. I was hoping to get another word, but when I tried writing again “bulb” came up again. I think of light bulbs and for some reason the light burning my eyes. I also think about flowers and planting bulbs to have flower bloom. The more and more I say the word bulb, the weirder and weirder it begins to sound.

    kim
  36. the word bulb always made me feel kinda queasy. i dunno, it’s just a strange word, kind of awkward. Like, the bulb of a flower or the bulb at the root of a piece of hair, or maybe even there’s a bulb rooted in your ass somewhere. i dunno. gross.

  37. A light bulb can resemble a good idea, something shadows from both metaphors would scorn at.

  39. A bulb is something that lights up the world. Let there be light, and light there was. Before bulbs we still lived in the cave days with oil lamps. Bulbs probably helped reduce the amount of burns that people experienced. Thus in conclusion bulbs helped reduce bulbs.

  40. The lightest coloured bulb on the string was an ochre yellow, but it was not the brightest. The brightest was in fact the orange bulb, and all the other bulbs passionately envied it.
