Technology Poems

Your passionate, unneeded pride...
Is hard to swallow, so I’m waiting for another tomorrow
Going along with the rowdy ride
Still feeling so low…but I must stay high, you know?

I want to glow bright and grow and not feel this hollow…
Break the mirror...Read More

              She tippy-toed

In the years since I was young,
Many changes have come about:
Many of them I would praise,
But some I could have done without.

Of course, labour-saving devices,
In all the years since I was young,
Have meant women are not such slaves -
Some positive...Read More

When Swift, "Bird of Hermes", Its Last Flight Takes

When swift "Bird of Hermes" its fast flight takes
path through nether worlds, its tall broken stones
phantom from Olympic heights swiftly breaks,
to survive ancient gods's dying groans.

Into earthen world, flashing flaming wings
from behind...Read More

60% of the world wealth
is owned by Billionaires
Which leaves 
the rest of the world

To function on 
forty percent 
of the world's wealth,
"getting a rich man into heaven"

Is like trying to get
a camel through
the eye of a needle
because with wealth

Gods expectation...Read More

God knows you can't 
change the world 
instantly

You can't destroy
the world economy
to protect the future

you need to take time
plan make budgets
build as you can afford

If rich people 
buy electric cars
it would still

take years for 
petrol-based technology
to be phased out

If you...Read More

Know that we are
not only made by
God, but we are
makers of gods;
the technology
we worship—the
bible of tables
(our elements);
we cook and
stew; we homogenize
and consume—drinking
the fluid bodies of 
eternity. Be as wise
of what goes into
your mouth, as well
as what comes out…
we excrete only
what...Read More

A Lemon Yellow Hat

The morning light of a new day, 
cascades through the bedroom window. 
I am alone. 
Your pillow is soft, and close by, 
it still smells of you...
barely. 
I can close my eyes, 
and pray to see your...Read More

Our World

"Once upon a time,
I was falling in love.
But now I’m only falling apart,
Nothing I can do.
A total eclipse of the heart."

Foolish sayings,
That’s what we follow.
Believe our zodiac horoscopes,
Follow them blindly.
Entranced by pretty words,
All of which are lies.
Lies we tell...Read More

because looking at the capitalist world
he realized that eventually,
a very few wealthy 
people would control the world

well everybody else 
became slaves to their money
that's pretty much what we have now
the very wealthy

Getting wealthier 
we...Read More

If I was God
I would be angry with the Government
you fight and you bicker
and you get nothing done

Look at England 
trying to get out of a contract
you want your leaders to be effective
they create plans

but then you argue and fight
you...Read More

Iron laws that rust corroded souls
Hold up society in liberalism water
Wash cultures down to their bare bones

Your intentions 
Were good 
It’s just that you misunderstood 
The technology 
You issue your child 
A digital leash 
An electronic guardian, babysitter, and spy 
We show them the door and provide the key 
And allow them to see the world...Read More

Digital Santa
Sung to “Santa Clause is coming to town”

You won’t find out 
You better not try 
Better not unplug
I’m texting you why
Google Plex is coming to town 

They’re making a list
And checking it twice 
They already know whose naughty and...Read More

Welcome to the f*** it bucket 
With digital pigs 
Slopping thru the binary trough 
Choking it all down with a cough
Yum yum yum 
How boring and glum 
Safe and easy to be dumb 
Can’t be mad If you don’t know...Read More

We live as kings and queens of yesterday could only dream
   Central heat, plumbing, air-conditioning, washers and dryers too
We shower once or twice a day, with conditioner and shampoo
   Steak every night should we want it,...Read More

We are a flock of active matter
and our lives a mystery of shapes,
entangled to the universe.

WOW! What a jam packed week ahead..
I've no time to rest or sleep.
I'm working 8 hours each day
For the bills I must pay..
And multiple adventures to seek.

I've lost 20 pounds and tried on new dresses..
Shopped for shoes at designer label...Read More

Utterances
Grunts
Tech references aligned with the toetapping movements
Ya

Who is the secret gabber she pines to hear more from
Who crinkles the toes
Pasty white except for the summer's flush of pink and wear
A city oblivious
And she as well
Making this hush cellular moment special...Read More

The fires rage thought out the bush
yet still we do not listen
The ozone layers depleted
rising heat in play 

teach the people saving 
teach that they invest
create then sola power
throughout the land that's best

Venise it is sinking the
ice caps melt each...Read More

post your comments using your voice out loud
post your pictures in real time through your actions

Trumpets blared from orifices hidden
   Awaiting his doom, the prince was bidden
To enter the dark hole of all things unknown
   Suppressing a shriek, he unplugged his phone...Read More

London is bewildered by its roads
The Circular, the North,the South,  the Codes
The Morse  and the  Enigma Turing broke
So now we have new bicycles with spokes

Once we had the A to Z  in hand
Turn it upside down...Read More
