The Clock's Whisper

gray0328

 

the morning begins with the same  

coffee in hand the clock ticking  

emails stacked like bricks awaiting  

answers that feel heavy to write  

 

the phone hums softly in protest  

papers shuffle restless on desks  

conversations loop the tired thoughts  

the day stretches its arms slowly  

 

lunchtime tastes of reheated routines  

the view outside remains unchanged  

keyboards click in endless harmonies  

hourglass sand surrenders to gravity  

 

when evening arrives the soul wonders  

was anything built from this effort  

or did the day simply consume you  

a machine learning to call itself human
