New Age










iSee you Mr. iPhone.









iRefuse to be your slave.
iWon’t iWon’t.
iReject your back lit mercury conscience
iShun your intentions
iWon’t breathe your prayers
iWon’t taste your garnishes
iWon’t rejoice or mourn
Your iFlips and iFlops.
iWon’t swim in your desire.
iKnow however
that iWill.
And I’ll be in the New Age because of it.
So iTake it back.
All of it.
iSlave and iWill to everything i.
As long as iModern.
As long as iCool.
iNow.

When people read this, I hope that it will serve as a small reminder that as the the future comes at us rapidly by the touch of our finger, we are still humans with much more to say than any smart phone ever could.
