Watching
progress load
the home movies of strangers
I will never meet

Click
Listening
to high school ghosts
sing the same six songs
till my earbuds sproud

Click
Fortifying
castle walls
invisible mortar against
a vast and empty hoarde

Click
Checking
how you are
who you're with
holding your shortand

Click
Whispering
how I am
screening my life
when the phone won't ring

Click
Searching
flickers of signs
that you are there
reading this
and one day you
(we?)
will
Click.
