The sound reverberated in her mind, where was it coming from? She first heard it walking down the strip after her shift was over at the buffalo diner. Now, as she sat in her car, heart racing, looking through her fogging windowshield, she heard it again. "click."

A few weeks after we started living together, Kris left a card propped up on the table for me one day when I got home. It had two computers and the cords from the mice (who were sitting close to each other) formed a heart. It said, "We just click." He's a dork, but I love him.

I click the button, the button made a clicking sound. A door swooshed, nothing made me feel well, except that swosh. So I clicked many times a day, to feel good about myself. Not only did is sound pleasing, it was a functional sound.

CLICK is the noise my typewriter used to make and that my computer still does, but not as loudly, much more discreetly. It's the same way people age, from age to age; they might do the same things but more discreetly somehow. Do they like what they do, does it bring them the same satisfaction? Ah, the answer to that contains the secret of living well and dying well. The door that closes with a click, the poem that closes with a similar click, the life that ends with a satisfying click. I think if I should someday write about this, I'd do it on a typewriter, the one that clicked with me before I knew I'd be writing forever.

I remember I loved to click on the hall light switch as a toddler. It drove my family crazy. But I had curly blonde hair and the called me "Chick." I thought the sound of the click was the same as Chick. My mother would run down the hall and pick me up laughing "youo mus not click the light." She would be sying no, no, but lauughing. To this day I lve turning things on with a flick of the rwrist as they say. I always though gum sounded like a light switch and I loved to chew gum. I don't like lamps that come on when you clap your hands, you loose the thrill of the click. I once had a surprize party when I was 18 and they clicked on the lights and there was everyone. I thought I'd faint dead away. Somemtimes I click on and off my memories. I do it by blinking my eyes. I had a kindergarden teacher that used to click her tongue at us if we were naughty I didn't care for her. My Dad used to make his horse, Dobin, go by clicking his tongue, I considered that magic.

This morning I clicked my computers mouse. listened to the majestic sound it made as I pressed my finger against the lucious plastic. I smiled at how today's tecnology was so complicated and odd. What has the world come to? What happened to all the good things that we used to cherish back in the old days? The typical modern-day joy for us is to turn on our computers and download mp3s and surf the net or chat on messenger. If the world is going to follow this deadbeat path, I say: "Hasn't history taught you guys anything?"

The key turning in the lock.... the lock, so important in letting you in and letting you out. Letting you go.
