she drove her autobiography into the lake
in search of a Lotus
he graffittied his own walls
not wanting to self-edit
babies monitor their parents
children their peer group
adolescents their avatars
old folk forgotten parks and gardens
shadows parked and drugged
plugged into past programming
moderated for lack of content
even when the stories broke out on blogs
(democratic self-publishing with no audience)
folk turned to retro-nostalgia as analgesia
(Choose your drug! SOMA or soap opera!)
where the fake headlines concocted for exposure
distracted commentators from Reality TV
Unplug from the grid!Bring back the Future!
Solar powered moons and jet stars splash
Diogenes holds his lamp like Socrates
We are all beneath the Sword of Damocles
What happens next needs reliable witness
Captains have resigned,stowaways in steerage
These is a list to star bored.Are we sinking?
Or is this another Armageddon to be re-issued in 3D?
Tell me stories.You know eye will believe them!
EKEKO
Andean god of prosperity
petitioned for a wish list of worldly goods.
Corn,coca and clay pots
transform into iPhones,microwaves,credit cards
In Peru,the sol rules over the dollar
while the economy grows @12% yearly
Capital inflow is volatile
as growth shifts from a moribund First World
into emergent ,resurgent markets
"It's the economy,stupid"
"The buck stops here"
