Andrea Dietrich Poet Senryu

Notes About The Poem

 

                                                                 Even sleeper cells!

 

Dim Thoughts On Cellular Reality

I’ve no real thoughts on
cellular reality
so I google it

on the internet
cellular reality
leads to John Goodsir

reading what I can
about John Goodsir’s theory
I cannot grasp it

I’m a dim light bulb
when it comes to this subject
I should just discuss cell phones

unfortunately
neither do I understand
my own small cell phone

I recall one thing -
that on a daily basis
we are losing cells

one more thing I know -
the sun can burn my skin cells. . .
that’s reality!

Duke Beaufort September 9, 2015 at 6:39 PM Cells are also little rectangles on the spreadsheets of accountants who may have no idea what is represented. Celery is also an interesting veggie. BTW, cell phones are two way radios that communicate via the closest tower where the signal is loaded on and off your subscriber network. Since the signal reaches more than one cell, however, it is possible to triangulate your exact location with pretty good precision. They know your distance from each tower.

Jennifer Walker September 8, 2015 at 1:40 PM I hate cell phones, the only time I use one is when on vacation. I for one love the peace and quiet when in a car, none of the pesky sales people on the line or a police officer asking for a donation. I can't stand seeing people driving down the road with the cell phone in their ear and a passenger sitting right next to them not included in the conversation.

Paul Callus September 7, 2015 at 4:42 AM Very witty and interesting, Andrea. Cellular reality can be taken with a pinch of salt, but sleeper cells need regular attention! // paul

Frederic Parker September 6, 2015 at 6:23 PM I have a cell phone that looks like it came out of an old star trek tv show, you know the one that flips open....drives my kids nuts that I won't upgrade to one of the newer ones. if you are still interested my poem on native americans was posted 8/4/15 Andrea Dietrich September 7, 2015 at 2:03 AM mine is so old and really thick compared to smart phones! I don't even allow texting on it since I detest texting. I really need to get into the new century!

Kim Merryman September 6, 2015 at 5:59 PM Ha! Ha! I'm with you on this subject. Creative way to do the contest, Andrea! Best wishes! Love, Kim

Richard D Seal September 6, 2015 at 5:54 PM I refuse to believe your thoughts are dim Petal, on cellular reality you're light years ahead of me lol. I must look up Mr Goodsir's theory see if that helps. Good one for the contest. Take care, Richard. Oh just passing through .
