here in the future

The mouse lies

in my hand

dead.

and I stare

as I wonder what’s next,

here in the future

where input creates

and output destroys.

here in the future

where old men

once feared

and young men

didn’t see

until too late.

its fast,

its slow,

its young,

its old,

its here,

its gone,

here in the future.
