[ On Poetry ] Paradigm Lost

      
It didn't take long after the uncorking      
of boundless Art'esian aquifer      
to fork off in a new streaming      
     
---Literature's flood into Cyber Space      
warped into a Dating App      
within a fortnite---      
     
an Adult Playground      
where "anything goes"      
sexual fantasies are shared      
under guises of "creative license"      
and "Freedom of Speech"      
     
which didn't occur when    
our backs were turned      
     
Instead, it happened      
when we turned our backs on      
Poetry    
     
the glorious Heaven of languaged      
grace we fell from      
     
before landing into a steaming      
pile of com'posted    
shit
