Crumbs
A crumb fell in my keyboard
just where the space bar and letter b are stored.
Couldn’t get it out no matter how I tried to jiggle
so there it lay defiant with every wiggle,
inching further down it went
with every failed attempt.
The crumbs of life
a blessing given but sometimes impolite.
It’s disappeared now
and even with my head low and bowed
I no longer see it freeing,
what damage will it do while I am keying?
Must learn not to eat or snack
when crumbs are on attack.
