Notes About The Poem

No, they won't.  Lol:

- Haiku X 93 - Call Me -

New technology
Gigahertz and gigabytes
In every pocket

Safety or madness
Design for kids in four years
Undermine childhood

It is very disturbing to me, Anne Lise. Probably a good thing I won't be around to see how it all ends. Great haiku!
