Grex Poetry Item 135: Do you smell smoke?
Entered by lumen on Wed Oct 20 23:59:45 UTC 1999:

i can smell it
the burnt fuses and blown capacitors
melted plastic
rotting flesh
smoldering ashes
of charred memories
and overworked processors
i can feel the catharsis
and the ache
the fatigue that never seems to end

somehow i keep running on overdrive
but you might as well forget the distress signal.. no one's answering

thank God I eventually recovered.  I was massively fatigued for several 
days, and after it let up, I caught the flu =P

I hate the flu.  I was the happy person that gave it to him.  Lucky me, 
huh?
