empty bubbles
in rigid formation
molecules that will form our lives
number 2 pencils
smell them, dusty and stiff
information
stored, organized
labeled boxes
in our brains
open the files
extract
apply
little robot minions
swallow words
numbers
letters
punctuation
wash it down with a thick packet
of dead trees
alien acronyms
for outrageous words
haunt our dreams
sweat beads on our brows
tears are shed
years wasted
all for that
four-letter
word
