Under the Machine
UNDER THE MACHINE
In Childhood
In awe
Of the power
The form
The possibilities
The reach
The complex beauty of creation.
Invention
That lengthens our stride
-Inwardly, outwardly-
Enhancing life
Turning cogs
Thrusting rods
Limitless boundaries of exploration.
Connecting
Village to village
City to city
Country to country
World to world,
Mind to mind,
Cyber pathways of neural connection
Breaching borders
Unseen.
I narrate words,
Redundant technology
Slowly lifted from the page
On the vocal chords
Of the machines product range,
Then...fade towards extinction!
