dots in a straight line across a monitor


dots in a straight line across a monitor
in bunches or speeding up in one direction
some catching up but never passing
like vehicles 
fleshing out the number code of wi-fi 
not a highway
so unlike a butterfly
black with indigo dots at the tips of its wings
alights on my bike and breathes
opening and closing wings in itself
stays
while your cars move on
passing each other in frustration
where a butterfly doesn't have to hurry
where egrets dance through waves of air
not in one eye and out the other
egrets catch my vision
and lead me to nature
you dumb darn dots do nothing
but make life stranger
