October 1

To be honest...

I’d rather be

in another time

a different place

somewhere else

than here and now

as things have become

 

Artificial intelligence

machine learning

deep learning

they cannot do this

Facebook, Twitter,

Instagram, Pinterest

and all the rest

cannot do this for me

 

This is why I’m eager only

for sleep and the dream’s

transportational realities

reconnecting me nightly

with the soul’s geographies

soul’s time explorations

gifting not with empty hope

but with new eyes, new ears

and curiosity for the new day
