- A conversation with Cyborg cashier working in Taco Bell .
I pull the night by its fore limb into the driveway
And listen as the sound of my car slowly
Fades into oblivion.
I hesitate in all the steps I take into Taco Bell;
My body is an aching that must not die yet.
My body is an aching with insatiable cravings
For crunch The cashier is a purple cyborg
Eye and codes intact I feel a certain breeze of loneliness
So I ask How many aches would it take the body to survive
To become indestructible ?
She, in her loyalty to her code, ignores my concerns and displays
A hologram of their menu I’m too liquid to crave a Baja blast
So I ask again How long would it take the world to bed rosés again?
Cyborg, in her loyalty towards her programs refresh the menu for something
Other than a crunchy meal.
Man, I’m not sure I’d want tacos after that encounter. But I loved the change of pace. Well done.
Feel free to peruse my work, as well.
