Pushing Buttons Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Pushing Buttons



What are you doing?

'Pushing buttons.
It should be obvious.'

It is.
But why are you avoiding,
The ones with the colors of the rainbow?

'Naw.
The people over there have already done that.
You notice the ones I push,
Are colorless.
Hopefully the doing of it will be more noticable.'

Well...
I did notice.

'That's all it takes.
To get just one to pay attention.'
