KoalaCam #46: Rislampa


I hung this lamp over a bed. It is called a rislampa in Swedish. Rice lamp in English. Rislampur in Icelanndic. Lampe de riz in French. The lamp watches over me, but it doesn't shine.

and why, pray tell, does the lamp not shine? you probably bought it at IKEA.

The light doesn't shine because I turned off the electricity by fucking a switch. Also: IKEA roolz and it's way possible that I bought the lamp there. But all those moments have been lost in time, like tears in the rain.

(I see now that I misspelled "Icelandic" but that's okay because the word was made up anyway. They probably don't call it rislampur.)

It looks like a planet floating in space... (no, not Pluto).

KM said...

Obviously not, since Pluto isn't a planet (as you well know). Pluto is Hitler's dog.

I shine.

Maybe, but can you play the piano?

No. I wish very often that I could. :-(
