My Desk

Computer Files, Workshop, Life—
stark honesty: each are like my desk
with piles of chaos, slowly growing,
ever morphing, and consuming.

From Time to time, I stop to clean
to bridle and contain the mess;
Chaotic tendrils trimmed to size,
while gems are found, to my surprise.

Computer Files, Workshop, Life—
stark honesty: each are like my desk
with piles of chaos, slowly growing.
I think it's time again to clean.
