this was great! no words....instead replaced by technology and the sound of tapping keys. how terrible!..the sound of short, boring, repetitive, mindless actions...technology...what a terrible thing. we've lost depth and gained speed...efficiency (as perfectly presented in the structure of this poem). i dread the day when days are more often than not a reflection of this...anyway...i'm rambling now....wonderful! i enjoyed this very much!

I like this, it's creative

I can see this all taking place and hear each and every sound. I like the way it made me smile and just to see it all unfolding in my mind.

You've given us a dance of sounds and thoughts to breathe out your words in movement. It is filled with wondrous rhythms and poignant confessions of life's spaces.

sounds like my day completely! I loved it. Sometimes we type just to hear the noise...feeling like we're accomplishing something when its nothing. Tongue-in-cheek humor.
