SHADOW THAT RESIDES
he must have nigh
a hundred cyber
lovers by now
trillions of synaptic connections
but does he have the Ram
Rom brain space
to hold
cherish them all
beings of bit and byte
whose love
and desire but an
inflection of text
behind
which veil who knows
the truth
being learnt
the shadow that resides
SKY CITY
cities in the sky
beneath the waves
circling the Moon
dug into
the rock on Mars
towering structures of
steel and
glass
not for me in my lifetime
this realization of
all we
did dream
not
for me
but
for you
maybe
maybe these
wonders
for you
or your children
or your children’s children
if you
have
a lifetime
and they
have any
kind of
existence at all
