The Internetting of Heart Strings

Simulated stadiums unleash Passion frozen in seatbelts riding backseat Bear with me As I tell what cannot be told: The future is whole as it unfolds But the social populace Stigma disgraced Is racing around what cannot be chased In the political imaginary The dog chases its own tail Media/industrial/economic/ semantic Falls back and eats itself A grandiose knot of contol- Still poison for those who would be fooled So while education microwaves the brain We are in the presence of where we need to be Interstellar harmony with grace Lying in wait As the infinity of an internet stream Awakens

And the vicious cycle goes on and on and on...I favor the second stanza the most. What a great depiction of the political circus! I can picture Joe Biden chewing on Obamas tail.... If you haven't been to the poems of Robert Hinshaw, I would strongly recommend you scroll through a few. He is one of the best rhymers on this site and his topics are excellent. Take care, Gwendolen

Definitely! thanks for the tip and the consideration. ive lately been submerged in this idea of virtuality versus the "reality" of power and how we can potentially exist
