Boolean Checklist

The shuffle of conception   veils intent behind promised order       until every umbrella-opened mind          cries out for truth, the liberator, sleep. Surrendering misplaced trust    proves the natural sequence remains       behind the reptilian empire, ancient          wealth, eugenic lies, mechanical time. I tap once for yes and twice    for no, yet no matter where I shall go       elements of control box-in my soul          using microchip, camera and satellite. A jump, knock at my door!    I answer; the answer cries out in you,       our friendship, the cosmos of wonder          ablaze in the open glow engulfing me.

John, this your masterpiece. This is the picture of our age and times, and these imageries break the boundaries of the virtual, making the real sublime and immediately frightening with potentiality. I love it. Thanks for writing on my poem. Peace and love.
