Mechanically Infected

 

If you hit
what you should
be missing
then your blood
it gets sniffed
by big fishes
parting rainbows
and clinging to clouds
you're deemed unstable
wearing the Turin shroud .

Devoured in vaporised breath
existential until a viral
untimely death
chimes that speak time
threaten a collapse,perhaps
through soul rhythms flat
they have elapsed ?
analogue then digital
to invisible,sick signals
an increased numerical
that precedes a G
may not mean a measurement
of inertia/velocity.

Time consuming games
with self obsession
a regressive, oppression
updating by day
robotic ingression
humanity strays
with an app dictation
to plan a childs day.

if your hands are waving
in a stand of protestation
your gesticulation
is berated
then erased
to numb.

Human heroes
of the past
their inspiration
faded to a plaque
there'll be nothing left
when the future looks back
because each week
we'll update to old hat.  


.

Fragmentations
of long wave stations
replayed and retuned
into current situations .

Beyond solar
reflected in lunar
diagonally projected
mechanically , infected  .
