no way out

gregg connolly 1956 (pennsylvania)



no way out
Amphigýeis more than a prod, a prompt, a product, a production
sapping  your activities, your proclivities, your creativities, your sense-abilities, your spirit, your soul, your visceral, your etheral, your emotion, your logic.

All for sale, byte by byte, to quell your boredom, to seek a qourum, a woman, a racing form, more wampum, a better decorum, and on and on and on and ... click and on and on and on and click...and on and on and on and click......... .....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
then your dead having lived the most perfect virtual life.
In truth you were dead a long, long, long  time ago or you may have never lived and loved

    Ugh! Another piece that hits too close to home. All I can muster is "Hello man in mirror." I need to utilize that damn door knob to breathe some freshly squeezed chemtrail fluff. This pc has flaring my dander for more than an eon.

    I like how your mind operates, Gregg. You cover all the bases beautifully. You were born for this.
