When I'm happy a tornado of o's and 1's cascade
from my heart, a why-
an endless carousel of binary;
But to be happy should be enough,
in those moments when I freeze and smile
I should ask for no more than that,
that last little star in the background
before the lights go dim,
and extinguish everything.
