I woke in the night
to a blinking light.
Who would be,
could be,
trying to reach me?
Someone posted a new picture
in their Facebook feed;
another sent out an ad,
because they were sure I was in need.
I forgot to turn off the notifications.
and now I can’t go back to sleep.
These are not what I want to be keeping me up at night.
There is so much more to life
than responding to a blinking light.
