What wakes me at night
Is a fear of outage
Losing our connections
Digital and wireless
VR and AR and AI
To the world outside.
No lights and no dial tone
No disembodied voices
“Alexa, what am I to do?”
Next to nature alone
Without a singularity
Gone with the grid
That gave breath
To our illusions.
Only the grey rain
And weeds.
“A significant paradigm shift is about to occur in how humans and computers interact with each other.”
