my first thought arrived early
i waited through the obvious bit
the blank space disagreed
that felt oddly specific
perhaps this is enough
the margin gets the last word
i noticed the cursor blinking
my attention moved to it
a thought became a word
the word repeated once
but the sentence refused to close
so i kept reading it back
still the line seemed odd
maybe it means nothing
i crossed out certainty
the screen offered no help
the ending wanted applause
maybe easy was the problem
noted with mild suspicion
the desk can decide later
