Varnish

Drops in the ocean:

How many e-mails did I compose today?

émail : enamel or varnish, in French.

Did I manage to varnish my life, with my e-mails?

O useless questions, you are multitudinous

Like stars in the universe times the number of my e-mails

My backbone aches under the weight of bits and pixels

Lighter than dust, but so bright my eyes can never rest
