Lightning Inside

The flourescent bulb above my cube keeps flickering, refusing to stay on or go off completely. Every now and then it sparks forward.. only to hesitate and fade again a moment later.

All the while midday sunlight pours through the windowblinds at the end of the aisle without interruption. Warmth stays on the sills, but there's something about the way the trees waver outside the glass that lets me know it's there.

Alone in my car I sing rudderless Dando at the top of my lungs.

    Together with you lately I seem to have no voice at all.
