E&OE
Sometimes, when I pause
After a burst of machine-gun
Tapping at the keyboard
And read what I typed in
I discover gaps - a word,
sometimes

to the tips of my fingers
Though I can type blindfolded
Though I tap in unblinking
Thoughts that had formed in my mind
Words that had formed in my head
Murmured at my lips -
