The Light Bulb!

I may or not be right, but I get the feeling that the title of the poem gives you a clue as to what it is about. The actual poem expands the theme further with flowery langauge and metaphors. So here's a little attempt I had tonight.

I've called it Australia Post (late note 11-8-06, after some feedback, the Title of this piece is now 'Mail')

my rectangle of feelings and devotion
scribed with haste and fervour,
slides into
the mouth of loneliness,
the pillar of blazing fire
To be consumed
Now!
And again, later

(leave a comment please with feedback and what you think I'm talking about, ta :-)
