Refurbished Dell

Fingers working almost overtime at a double pace while the notes of a piano play through the raggedy speakers of this refurbished Dell laptop. A song by Atmosphere playing in the background; he types away at the keyboard hoping for something inspirational to jump out at him like a panther pouncing on its prey in a jungle. But, there still is nothing inspirational coming into the background or even his foreground as he types. The clock on the desk blinking "2:23 A.M." from the power outage two hours and twenty-three minutes ago. His ironed-on tightness of a face begins to give in to two large dimples. His pupils are now wider as the song comes on. The song he had first heard back in January that has made him a fan of this particular band, Band of Horses. As the tempo of the song begins to go back down, his heart rate becomes parallel with the bass line slowing down as well. The chorus comes back in raising the tempo (and his heart rate) once more. He finds himself staring into space looking for some inspiration. Damn it, some sort of inspiration somewhere around this room. He looks at the bright colored shoes below him thinking they might have some sort of worth in this writing. He shrugs and continues to type away, but finds nothing to write about. Another blog finished.
