Lightning Bug

Tonight, I would like to be a lightning bug and join the other lightning bugs, doing the things they do. 

I would like to flit around in the dark near the tree tops so that sleepy-eyed humans can lay in their beds, looking out their windows, and wonder if that's really a lightning bug, or if it's a space ship coming to Earth, or a star that appears to be moving because it's shining through tree branches, or maybe a celestial event that's never been seen before.  

Actually, I think tonight I would like to be a space lightning bug and join the other space lightning bugs in space, doing the things they do. 

I would like to flit around the outskirts of distant Magellanic clouds, or whiz through super massive black holes to see where they lead, or find other life forms on distant worlds.  Maybe I'd even find other creatures with lights in their butts and we could have a light-butt concert.  

Or maybe, just maybe, I should step away from the keyboard and put myself in bed before something crazy comes out of my mind, like politics or something.  

zzzzzz...
