Notes About The Poem

tomorrow

I’m getting a new computer tomorrow
I love my tech about as much as I love my boyfriend
It’s M5 chip, 10 CPUs, neural processors and GPUs
will mostly idle away as I grope for the right words
but they won’t show their impatience - no -
they won’t sigh and tap their shoes like a boyfriend.

I’m getting a new computer tomorrow
I’ll love it’s bright, starlight, smooth and flawless skin
maybe not quite as much as I do when I’m groping him
but I’ll sigh with delight as I run my fingers over its form
few things in life completely delight and please me 
I know one or two - and one of them will be brand new.

A song for this:
Joburg jam by Pogo
Nobody by Kate Earl

*every year I trade in my Macbook Air for a new one, it only costs ~$250 so why not? That way I have the latest, greatest tech.

My sis was funny, would refer to my Dad’s computer as our brother Chip…she’d say, I don’t like Chip. ;) Hugs Anais Vionet March 10, 2026 at 5:45 PM I fell in love with computers early and my brother taught me all about them - I was lucky. ??

Peter's luck you don't confuse the two, so far. <3 Anais Vionet March 10, 2026 at 6:58 AM Every year the computers get about 22% faster with a few other improvements - $250 isn't bad and it'll be so shinyyyyyyyyyy! I haven't caught up on earlier comments yet *frazzled*
