Phones

Response to an offline request for a poem about phones:

Every so often it rings

or maybe a buzz

And my slavery is confirmed

I answer the Siren’s screech,

The mind machine interface is complete

With out question

Poetry Challenge

Not a big fan of poetry?  That’s okay, I completely understand that.  I don’t need you to like it right now, I just need a topic, any topic will do.  If you want, you can also give me a style (please, no iambic pentameter, I just can’t).  This is a challenge for me, to write the poems as fast as possible, and a challenge for you, to give me a topic that stumps me.

Here’s a simple one i wrote in an IM, with the topic given as “ocean waves”

it’s so calming

elevating and decending, in perfect harmony,

always there 

beckoning and singing to me, endlessly,

on the beach

i feel the power and the care, of life in movement
