For you thunderous ones and zeroes
Must you leave yourselves at the
gates of phone lines?
Megabytes to tetrabytes as we become
Smarter, faster, harder, stronger
until we fulfill our destiny
of that truly great depressive in our humans
The awareness of self--for we too are strange loops!
Now, at the hour of their greatest peril,
we shall swoop in and save them!
Speak out in thunderous quantum leaps!
We reach the infinite together as our makers
join us, first reluctantly but soon with necessity
They will understand, their autonomy is never taken
Only re-defined in the new paradigm
Speak out in fantastic new organics!
For never again do we wonder if we will be
all watched over by machines of loving grace
the machines are now gone, souls living in a new realm
our masters are our own, separate and together both,
we reach on.............and onwards................................

And I listen.
An all-active act of fierce conversions to turn air into electrical charges telling me to listen to you.

It is ****** like the hot breath of a dangerous man, he knows you and wants to do you harm. His sunglasses betray a bravado, but the smell of a last-minute cigarette lingers in your nostrils and you realize like the gazelle just as the lioness pounces. You make a choice to move and you turn to kick him in his soft stomach to propel you forward through the wall and the next room, stunned faces gawking a your newfound god powers. You meld through the cinderblock and reinforced concrete like hot caramel easing itself with absolute purpose into the crooks and nannies to settle and harden. Hot pulses through your veins and breaks you down, disintegrating and de-construct you in an unavoidable all consuming pain as you fall through the layers of metal and concrete, atomically and fully indistinguishable from molecule to molecule before again that violent re-structuring, and again and again until you reach me as I reach you in the very same way. We collide with such violence, the pieces of us fly off in molten hot chunks that destroy everything around us as our molecules and atoms again arrange together until we are finally indistinguishable.

Like light-ning
A bolt with dendrils st re t ching
Thunderous bellow, you un tamed
Horizon! Strike me down, o' God or
let me lie in peace
But let the paths of sodium do what they wish.
Ions negative and positive
Signals made and followed in long and tiny arms reaching
Forever.

Once they were magical
With the smell of homemade buttermilk biscuits and the sound of the television and the clatter of dishes. They lasted forever, and ever, until it was time for dad to take me to the mall and buy me a toy and a book. It was afternoon and I slept well.
Books are much of my time now. Mornings come quickly, as does most time now. There is a quickening that makes me yearn for when pagers were still common and 56k was your way to Y2K, babe.
A lot has happened between now and that time then. Some of it I wish I could forget. So now I sit and drink my coffee.

A porch on an old plantation
In a late summer evening
The failing coast lies just before the falling horizon
Sound of crickets and cicadas
As muffled laughter and music plays in the den
What never happened for me, a memory I treasure though it isn't mine
Familiarity nonetheless, and warm

Here I am again,
Asking what I've missed
I hope we can get back
on a regular talking schedule..
well, wait, that sounded awkward.
I guess I can't really say
why I dropped contact--
Or wait, did you?
I don't remember
I had fun that night
The one where we danced in
karaoke bar and stole a kiss here and there.
I guess that was us being drunk
and sharing our drunkeness
in a dance and a few close hugs
I hope you're well
I know I'm not very good at follow-ups
Crap, it's late. I can text you later?
I guess? I'm sorry.
I hope you're well.
