Prompt 20 (Half Marathon 2 Hour 8)
I look outside and I see pitch black
But inside, my office is on a metaphorical fire
Keys clicking, screen shining bright
Not just mine, but his too
“Side!” I say
We peer over our monitors
Eye contact and a smile
Back to our clicking keyboards
And screens shining bright
Frantically working
Expressing our individuality, but in sync
I look outside and I see pitch black
Inside, electricity makes sure I can see
But there’s something else filling me with light
Well done!
My favorite part was “Side! … eye contact and a smile” such a precious moment.
