This is for you, Rick Stevens. The poem in it.
The microwave came to life
Yesterday.
We had pushed every possible button,
Except Power Saver,
It seems.
Pushing the Power Saver button
Meant
Everything went blank.
Pushing it again
Brought the microwave
To life.
The power had been saved
Until then.
The clock kept time
Inside.
It was still exactly right,
Time kept
On some microwave chip
Inside,
An internal time-keeping piece.
The time?
Exactly right.
