MILLENNIUM NOSTALGIA: CIRCA 2122<\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
once there was a time unmediated<\/p>\n
where black mirrors were an accident<\/p>\n
but the digital decay has heaped up all around<\/p>\n
covered by domes or just proximity<\/p>\n
with no difference between skin and an interface<\/p>\n
that world of rawness, rocks and twigs<\/p>\n
unreachable now as clean water<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
once there was a time when music was made,<\/p>\n
art, literature, goods, all by human beings<\/p>\n
with hearts and hopes and wickedness<\/p>\n
but those were hands who made their own worlds<\/p>\n
now our hands receive without any part in making<\/p>\n
our minds call forth what we wish and we<\/p>\n
having never heard of a monkey\u2019s paw,<\/p>\n
(or even a real monkey) receive with insatiable delight<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
all our desires fulfilled- fruit that never goes bad<\/p>\n
girls who never grow old. perverse plastic perfection<\/p>\n
and outside the bubble, the consumed, the rot<\/p>\n
which we haven\u2019t found a way to repurpose yet but<\/p>\n
just give us another 20 years of glamor and greed<\/p>\n
and surely by then we\u2019ll have gotten around<\/p>\n
to grinding away any proof that Earth Herself<\/p>\n
was ever more than another ancient legend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
