Amazement

conversations with William Shakespeare
Tuesday 29 July 2008.
 
This is a very strange world
I am living in, Will
 
And I am dealing with
Very weird things.
 
Ports, links, wires,
Switches and their firmware,
 
Fans and power supplies,
Bugs and flies
 
Flying all over
My desk.
 
To be frank,
I never understood them at all.
 
And I get electrocuted
Seven times per day.
 
Electricity is such
A tremendous power
 
That sometimes,
In the middle of the noisy laboratory,
 
I get the funny impression
That they are trying to tame a thunderbolt.
 
Chained by the intricacy
Of their twisted minds,
 
The dragon of fire bites
Once in a while.
 
I get home relieved:
Life is just work in progress.
