  11. The lioght bulb glowed an iredecsant green in the attic. you clould see the strange glow from outside and many people thought that the house was haunted. Every night at 9:00 the light would turn back on and the green glow would shine out the window onto the streets.

  15. I don’t want to write about a bulb. I want to write about something that evokes something. All this word reminds me off is bad jokes… and flowers. Ok. So a bulb is something my mother would pull out of the garden and keep until the spring. it looked dry and dead. but she would plant it again and sure enough it would grow. Beautiful.

  16. There is a light bulb over my head right now. There are flower bulbs closing outside as the winter sets in. Why does the light bulb and the flower bulb have the same name? Is it that they both release light? What is the significance of bulb?

  19. Bulb? What the hell is a Bulb? Why can’t we get good words instead?

    You know I always get the feeling that we’re being swindled, or there is this big machine computer robot thing something like the Matrix cheating us. Now this might be a part of a bigger conspiracy by the machine to get me to spew the contents of my brains, which probably will be later used to psycho-profile me.

    if I only knew…

  21. I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by LIGHTBULBS,
    starving, hysterical, naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry LIGHTBULB,
    Angel-headed LIGHTBULBS burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night,
    who povery and LIGHTBULBS and hollow-eyed and high sat up smoking in the supernatural darkness of LIGHTBULBS floating across the tops of cities contemplating LIGHTBULBS,
    who bared their brains to Heaven under the LIGHTBULB and saw Mohammedan angels staggering on LIGHTBULBS illuminated,
    who passed through universities with LIGHTBULBS hallucinating Arkansas and Blake-like LIGHTBULBS among the scholars of war,
    who were expelled from the academies for LIGHTBULB and publishing obscene odes on the windows of the LIGHTBULB,
    who cowered in unshaven LIGHTBULBS in LIGHTBULBS burning their LIGHTBULBS in wastebaskets and listening to the LIGHTBULBS through the wall,
    who got busted in their pubic LIGHTBULBS returning through Laredo with a belt of LIGHTBULBS headed for New York,
    who ate LIGHTBULBS in LIGHTBULB hotels or drank LIGHTBULBS in paradise alley, death, or purgatoried their LIGHTBULBS night after LIGHTBULBS with LIGHTBULBS with LIGHTBULBS with waking LIGHTBULBS alcohol and LIGHTBULBS and endless LIGHTBULBS, incomparable blind LIGHTBULBS of shuddering LIGHTBULBS and lightening of the mind leaping toward LIGHTBULBS of Canada and LIGHTBULBS illuminating all the LIGHTBULB world of time between.

  23. The light flickered casting strange shadows around the bare room.
    Her eyes strained trying to see into the far corners.
    She didn’t know where she was.
    She recognized nothing.
    The room, as far as she could tell, was long and completely empty.
    Just her, the rope that held her, and the single bulb hanging above her.
    Flickering one last time, everything when dark.

  28. Blubs are wonderful things. Im talking about light bulbs of course. Light bulbs singlehandedly changed how the world operates.

    Without lightbulbs we could never have really accomplished the industrial revolutions of the past centuries. Lightbulbs alloued people to work

  29. light bulbs go out over manhattan. I guess that’s what happens when things start to collapse. Overnight, the bustling city became the darkest hole in the world. The Earth died the day he did. It’s all because of a stupid ego and a faulty brake line.

  30. His bulbous nose was horrifying, a red monstrosity that marred an otherwise perfect face. How could I stand kissing him, when every time I turned my head to do so, he ruined it with that hideous nose? Don’t tell me I’m shallow- when I want to kiss a man, I want to really be able to KISS that man.

    All I saw when I visited him, or talked to him, was NOSE.

  31. There is a light in every bulb and every time you see the bulb you think hot. The hot of the bulb can burn you and you cont like the burn of the bulb.

  32. the plant grew into a monster, a giant vivactic monster that stormed throught the streets terrorising every woman and child until it feasted on what it needed. Honey, succulent honey from the ass of a bee.

  33. A flower bulb. Just a simple tulip. Maybe an Orchid? What grows from a bulb? Hmmm… Maybe I should learn more about them. Maybe not. I would never want to. Or have the time. Too bad. Bulbs are pre-flowers.

  35. Spring, that’s the only thing I can think of, new life, resurrection, not in the Biblical sense, but in the natural sense. I guess light, but that means spring too, better light, a renewal of everything.

  36. YOUr words are the bulb for my garden
    they’re a bit ugly now but they’ll grow
    Just my thoughts
    they were young and disjointed
    but then they, as I, grew.

    They explode now though sometimes they don’t smell as pretty

    Some day I’ll have a beautiful garden.
    And it will all be thanks to you.

    My beautifully ugly bulb.

  37. She planted the bulb in her garden with care. Over the weeks, it slowly sprouted and grew into a leafy plant. She tended the garden as long as she lived at that old house, and even when she had gone it continued to flourish.

  38. She took the bulb in her hand. Tulips. Why did it have to be tulips. It reminded her too much of the event. She sighed and dug out some dirt with her hands, tears forming in her eyes, and placed the bulb in the soft earth. Tulips.

  39. It went off in his head, the light bulb, that told him to run. He was just sitting at his desk, reading and doing his work, when he realized that he was trapped like a rat in a cage. He realized that he had to get the hell out of there, and so he pushed him self up with his fists, and bolted. He just ran, all he knew was that he needed to be somewhere else, and then there he was.
