I just noticed
click away as if something reallyhow the lighted screen
looks ripped across the top
like the mini yellow pads
that clutter and stack a desk --
to dos and dones, calls recorded
calls returned, hand-drawn charts,
the stuff of later talks,
pages ripped, discarded
starts and stops.
The keys along the bottom
is depressed and strikes.
How like a life this screen,
bright as the eyes can take,
as the hand that hits delete
but does not think to save.
