the sand
the separator
places
where scattered patches
of grass ruins
the road
the shoe, unlaced
"the hangings" draws,
go figure,
how a family ate
remotely?
says from...
kinetic toy, now
in the rule,
an ad.
sticks! sand! shoes!
the places
I knee'd
remind me
where I'm from still,
the sand... the kin,
the separator.

What Happens To Your Brain When You Stop Multitasking
Digital technology is the culprit that is causing us to doom scroll when tired, disengaged and unmotivated with the content that motivated you to log onto your device to consume in the first place. That is only the beginning. In the modern workplace (and even when filing cabinets were around, I confirmed this with my adopted parents to get my facts right); reading files while you are supposed to be present to the caller on the other end of the phone line is another classic example of multitasking that causes your brain (although adaptable and intelligent) to lose focus and concentration.
