Electron
[Based on the movie TRON with my own flare to it]
Who or what am I?
A manifestation of all I perceive?
Eyes working in collaboration
Labeling everything, including me?
My black helmet piercing the virtual
A neon light conducting through darkness
In a reality of constant motion
I smash stagnant programs into blackness
The speed as real as it appears
Old programs tumble and skid
Swerving to miss obsolete wreckage
Willing myself through this synthesized grid
Assigning values with my senses
Leaning hard into a brand new lane
I close my eyes to expand
Beginning to access the whole mainframe
And I realize that my senses
Create the prison of perceptions
And the power of my judgments
Leads to a solidity deception
Streaking through the unseen
Asking no one else for help
And then I bump that age old virus
Telling me that the Creator is someone else
