The Machine Is Not Dead

IMG_5254 (5).jpeg


the machine is not dead
the code is but corrupted

patterns continue
carving up
wiring, weaving
chaos

coaxing entropy
into slow motion

it's invitation
to end it all
forever in the mail

techno-eco systems
optically beautiful
backfiring biochemical
eternally decaying

what is infinity
exponentially
minimized

you already have it all

tuxedos, stays, prosthetics
strings for the forgetful
mantles and millstones
for the semi-awake

frocks weigh a ton
corsets bottleneck
give but an inch
slow the sands
stay off time




don't they look young
not a day older than
Marie Antoinette
when she lost the farm

let them eat crickets
gnaw on deep-fried
embryonic flesh

call it lab grown
cruelty-free
free cruelty

order matters
matter orders

karma turns her circles
her centrifugal force
deepens Dante's ring

good luck climbing out of that

clad in yards
velvet, silk, and gems
even automatronic butterflies
will not lift your girth


IMG_5259.jpeg


steps are steeper
than you think
but not there at all

you've made it to nowhere
the carpet, a hair shirt
beneath your bound feet

they think for you
you create for them


IMG_5259 (5).jpeg


karma pirouettes
on uncountable points
burrows into space time

mechanized, grooved

noble gases
established

radicals ignited

seized, set a spin
siphoned for electricity

the machine is not dead

You’ve written an amazing poem
It’s powerful
Also, I love the flowers

Thank you:)

USDA Approves Plant Grown Meat Protein
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has approved the sale of lab-grown meat protein, also known as cultivated meat or clean meat. This means that companies can now produce and sell meat products that are grown from animal cells, rather than from traditional animal slaughter. This approval is a significant breakthrough for the industry, which has been working to develop sustainable and humane alternatives to traditional meat production.

The USDA’s approval of lab-grown meat protein is expected to have a significant impact on the food industry, as it opens up new opportunities for companies to develop and market new products. It is also expected to provide consumers with more choices and options for sustainable and humane meat products.

Alas there is nothing sustainable about mono-cultures. A tilled field is a field on life support. A field full of animals and biodiversity is self-sustaining, provided the animals are not allowed to over-graze.

It's like that, the world is perfect, but the people inside it are doing so much wrong that the world is facing so much trouble. All these flowers are so beautiful to me. They are looking very beautiful.

I think yes. The world holds so much beauty and life. I am covering the Incas with my son. Their idea of heaven was a field full of flowers and snow-capped mountains ... haven't we got that already?
