Lost in the labyrinth

by Kevin T McEneaney

How many minutes per day do you spend

deleting unwanted spam emails?

Do you have over a hundred a day?

Or is your daily quota three hundred?

The digital world is a clutter joke

which is not amusing in any way.

Each day, one has a morning routine

of cleaning up what floats in your inbox.

*

Cleaning your email inbox is as boring

as cleaning an outdoor barbecue grill

with plastic sponge, soap, and elbow grit….

*

Likewise, TV drowns in advertising spam,

yet it has a self-deleting time track.

We have evolved a culture of clutter….
