Monitoring Device (Poem)

Monitoring Device

Tender, this thing inside
breaks. The fuss of stat!
passes in the instant.

Picture this: once-steep hills
to get across, get over—
rise interrupted by fall.

A solid line shimmers
ahead, stretches so long.

I'm in awe once again of your imagery~to portray such a poignant moment so peacefully.
