Gershon Wolf Poet Imagism

Human Transistor

Glued to her smartphone
Gaping at it
Her mouth contoured in a WOW
She herself plugged in
A human transistor
Eyes glowing, ears antennae
Batteries fully charged

Arturo Michael August 23, 2019 at 4:33 AM It's a mind world today...we'll probably have big heads and a little body in the future... Gershon Wolf August 23, 2019 at 10:49 AM I think so too. Like Charlie Brown in Peanuts or something, except wired to the gills.

Caren Krutsinger August 23, 2019 at 2:21 AM I have seen it, and it is exactly like this. Gershon Wolf August 23, 2019 at 10:48 AM Isn't it though?! As frightening as it may be to those of us who first conceived this as pure science fiction, it's the way of the world for those born recently...
