ODE TO THE ELECTRON

Atom dancer

Light romancer

Key to lightning

Franklin's answer

Precious little spark

You illuminate the dark

Running through my lamp

Not much bigger than a quark

But pray please tell me so I know

How

Do

You

Know

Which

Way to go?




Author's Notes/Comments: 

Illuminating, don't you think? When this text is centered in the page, so that the centers of each line are aligned, a perfect sillouette of an electric lamp is formed. Does anyone know how to do this with the current software? The above format pretty much misses the point.
