Closing in on 4pm. Office almost empty, most displays powered off but machines are waking up all of a sudden, fans spinning up, as do hard drives. (Surprised these machines actually do still have moving parts inside.) Across the backyard, two floors below, bored people are stuck in a boring meeting. Presenter invisible somewhere in the room, the last row folks checking their phones and losing track while gazing at a random void. That time of year again for sun to already hide behind the buildings. And of a wind strolling through yellow leaves.
