And I focus
on the red standby led's;
They're like three fireflies
pausing in mid air.
Wrapped inside cashmere thoughts,
my curtains close.
I crawl into aspiration...
Time blurs
into digital green
and I slumber into stargaze.
Author notes
three standby led's: the one of my stereo, TV and Playstation.
my stereo also has this digital clock in green...
yah... that's what I'm looking at all the time in my sleepless nights
Please tell me what you think

Going by your author comments I think you should change "leds" to "LED's". Other than that, a nice poem that you have written here.

I love your work, such adventure into the ongoings of naturistic basic. Full of action, such breath of fresh air that kicks your energy into volume - that's how this poem made me feel.

This is beautiful, Leander!! Reading this "digital firefly poem" of yours make me wonder why you don't write these little gems more often. Wonderful poetry, my friend!

Damnit, you guys are killing me. How am I supposed to judge this?!

Have you ever noticed that this color green is very hypnotic? I could stare at this color for hours, and then I'm suddenly very hungry for a salad
Loved the verbage in this piece!

lmao
I've never really thought it to be hypnotic... more boring in fact, and I never really felt hunger for a salad either that's a good one 
thank you for your encouragement and applaud
