What We Do All Day
A Poem by Matthew Savoca
i think about crop circles
and wander around the apartment
i keep walking into the room you are in
just to remind you that i'm alive
then i walk out again
what do you think are the little balls of light?
i want to know
if i focus all of my mental energy
or think really hard for a long time
about a particular crop circle shape
will it appear to me in a significant manner?
if i tell you how i feel right now
will you look at me and make some facial expression?
there are so many things that i don't understand
like where crop circles come from
or how a refrigerator is magnetized
or what could be so interesting
about staring at a computer screen
is it the neon light?
what room have you been sitting in?
i come from another dimension
