The technology now rules us all

And shit if I’m lucky to delete 

and reactivate As much as I get up, I fall.

Crawling back to a cracked screen

That cuts my face when I answer calls.

People have begun opening their 

Hearts and even the introverts have

Created new shaking in their boots starts and here I am More comfortable to store my

Arts and thoughts like misheard pearl jam

Lyrics make their way into a phone in the

Hands of my body instead of letting 

Ink and paper define my hobby;

A travesty!

A travesty, everlasting don’t 

You see? Like a hermit crab with

A plastic bottle cap for a home

Doin her thing in the deep sea,

And they aren’t rens if you

Were to ask me but these tiny

Little tuxedo wearing chickadee’s

Makin a new home, right next to me.

The more time that’s passed, 

The more that we have planted

And grown our seed in this place

Where the horses still race in

The countryside​ where invisible

Lines don’t divide their gallant stride;

Yet not even they will hide inside

A cave to try and save their 

Mind because horses can’t read

signs but they see words in

Movement, in alignment 

and they Feel the humidity

of the air and watch when 

The chickadee’s go and know it

Doesn’t matter when they

Continue in the flow

And they know it doesn’t 

Matter where and when they go;

Their fucking horses,

Those fucking hoes.
