_{Tired, I know when the word "earphones" turns to "elephants"
That the elements of emotional imperialism
Are fading with the embers.
Tired, the image of audio-sensory pachyderms
Twists and squirms in the regent-governed chaos of my 3 AM
Mind. A divided house on sand.
Or something like that.
Understand?
Where's the order in this free-verse? It's a cursed lost mansion
Disorder being the cost of one unskilled in scansion
And the more I think about how this art is supposed to be
The more I notice that the world is a piece of dropped circuitry.

Hardwired, I look at the world as folders and right-clicks
With each of us ending up a processor of pessimism
And fading with the black-outs
Hardwired, every poem is a frayed USB cable
Between me and you- played and portrayed as an unstable download
Buffering with indemnity
From your demands
Understand?
Where's the love in this electronic wasteland? I refuse
Every piece of rubber-insulation blowing the fuse
And the more I think about how this world is supposed to be
The more I notice that my art is a piece of dropped circuitry.

Inspired, I melt the coiled wire with fire from love
With redemption from data; emotional Confucianism
Is wading in Decembers.
Inspired, the svelte feeling of blood in my veins again
Briskly burns any memory of a memory card holdout
Blistering with tenacity
From your soft hands
Understand?
There is peace in this resistance strike against apathy
Though this circuit board world that you like makes me lonely
And the more I think about how this life is supposed to be
The more I notice that my heart is a piece of dropped circuitry.}
