cassettes
images swirl in my mind,
the past, the present
mashed up in one continuous rewind
Magnetic tape
analog escape
from digital rape
the cassettes
lay stagnant
in a box
under my bed
buried,
as the dead.

the lowly 8 track tape does not even have the title of "has been" anymore. Soon enough, cd's will be under the bed, collecting dust in favor of digital imprinting in the brain, where music is only a thought away. Of course it's always been a thought away, but somehow audible stimulation makes it feel more real. jj
