progress is computers and crab Legs
Michael Estabrook
Another computer training session
learning to do tasks better, faster,
more efficiently, than I
could do them before, tasks,
actually, that I never did
before, never even thought
of doing before, or knew
I could do or wanted to do before.
And everybody's sitting around
the conference room table staring
through their thick
lensed glasses at
their little laptop computer
screens, fingers clicking
frantically across tiny keypads
sounding like
an army of crabs scurrying, their
tiny little crab legs skittering
across a bare wooden floor.
