the sign


from the ABC set 'Selected Poems: 1989 - 2009.'

the sign.

I sit before my computer screen
staring into cyber space
I’m looking for a good sign
in the heavens of information

I sit and listen for a sound
from the worlds beyond
I’m waiting for that good sign
from inside and from outside

there is a flash upon the screen
a flash of information;
I wonder if it was a sign,
or just my imagination.
