Circuit Candle

The screen is blinking

Midnight code

My breathing slows

Lines of syntax stretch across the dark

A quiet space inside the machine

Each character a static spark

Floating right in between

I am fading

from the screen

In the silence of the loop I find my steady mind

All the noise begins to group Leaving time itself behind

In the code I am aligned

Variables dissolve into the air

A state of focus,

deep and cold

No past or future waiting there

Only the present to behold

In the silence of the loop I find my steady mind

All the noise begins to group

Leaving time itself behind

In the code I am aligned

Zero, one, zero, one...

Quiet now...

Done.
