Revolution

Suits, smiling & svelte
between
the sunshiny glass,
spinning…

Spinning fast, the Suits
near the speed of light,

cartoonish in fact.

I get caught up
in their whirlwind -

animated by the
out of control
maneuvering.

Caught in the matrix,
I laugh
as my cell rings.

…ready for a revolution
dark glasses intact.

Artificial Intelligence,
its satellite department
on the phone.

I am carried away,
still spinning -
spinning fast,
near the speed of light.

I see you
through Alice’s glass.
You look smart
in your coat and slacks.

Kim, are we ready for all this? I think you make this seem real. Although humorous, you raise so very valid concerns. Things are about to change very quickly...and it may have a lot of negatives for many.

Seems like a whimsical dream, Kim. The spinning could represent a feeling of being out of control in your daily life and noticing the person (probably yourself in a mirror as you whirled by) in the smart coat and slacks, (or a person of interest) was your exit back into reality. Either way, a fun uninhibited poetic rumble. You have an interesting mind to me, my friend. Hugs, Bill

Hello Kim. What a superb write. I especially like the allusion to Alice Through the Looking Glass. Smart, sharp lines on the Suits in a 'whirlwind' around us. Best wishes, Brian
