Turning off the light

The man reached over the wood pile
for the eletric box
and leaned on it with his wet left hand
while his right
pulled out the plug to the light
then went to turn off the main switch
requiring tactile navigation in the dark
of wires and other dangerous things
and thought
Is it safe?
Well, the hand answered,
I’ve gone this far.

    Well done!
