Figures and Furrows

Contrasts: --- break ---

Figures and Furrows --- break ---

As the figures, swim across my vision,
Another furrow is ploughed across my forehead,
Another column,
Another ditch,
One more row,
One more heap,
Figures, symbols,
Graphs and tables,
Waltz around the screen,
Never stopping, never pausing,
Always in between,
Concentration, concentration,
Focus tightly formed,
The face a look of thick contemplation,
Of furrows across the field on my forehead.
