UNKNOWN PURPOSE

I sit

working

on god knows what

day after day

hour after hour

minute after execrable minute

slaving away

for some unknown purpose

before this magical machine.

I do not understand how it follows my commands

I do not understand how it gives them.

I do not know who is master here

though I am certain it is not me.

I do not know much of anything

but I know I have a job to do

and it requires sitting

working

for some divine plan

day after day

hour after hour

minute after exhausting minute

and I hope

when the days

the weeks

the months

the years near end

it will all have been worth it.
