What am I?

-
What is a stone
That doesn't get picked up
To build a Wall?

Is it a stone
Strong enough to face the wind
To face the Time?

What is a stone
When it's all alone?

What is a painting
That's not hanged on the wall?
What is rain
 If it doesn't fall?

What is a picture
That's not looked at?
What is a path
That nobody walks on?

What is an empty room?
What is a moon
Without the light of the sun?
What is a mother
Without a son?

What is silence
If nobody is listening?
What is a word
That has never been spoken?

What is a stone
In the middle of nowhere?
Is it alive?
Is it dead?
Is it there?

The lightbulb

-
- I've got to go. - Go where? - I do not know.   I've gotta go change the lightbulbs on the highway. - Wouldn't you rather go to the freeway? - No lamps there, I have to got to go to the sunshine of my house. No lamps there either. - Maybe you should walk through that valley over there. - Or climb this mountain over here. - Maybe you should not pay attention to what you overhear. - Come near.   There's a castle in the clouds, surrounded by all these cows. They whisper in the night, they talk to the moon to bring them back on the ground. The wolves listened and came to tear down the castle and eat the cows. Bellies full, they grew too heavy and fell down the clouds into the sea. Then the sun rouse the grass the cows could be. And do you want to know the worst part? - Rather not. - Please, let me tell you. - No... - Ok, but just so you know, you're the lightbulb.
